My plan is to try to work with sections of the library at the time. As described below, I intend to begin with the programs connected to Nonlinear noise reduction. The goal is to then document all those files and create a usable package. After finishing those functions I intend to move to another area of the TISEAN package and add programs that actually make a whole. As it is hard to precisely estimate how much time porting the entire TISEAN package will take, I can make small steps that will in-and-of-themselves form a whole. | |||
Thus every milestone will be finishing each section of the TISEAN package. | |||
I would like to tackle them in the following order: | |||
* Nonlinear noise reduction | |||
* Testing for nonlinearity | |||
* Nonlinear prediction | |||
* Lapunov Exponents | |||
* Dimensions and entropies | |||
Once those are completed I will look at other programs to be ported. The idea though, is to focus on getting a solid start for porting this library. | |||
== Where I intend to start == | |||
I will start with a small step of porting all of the functions needed for [http://www.mpipks-dresden.mpg.de/~tisean/Tisean_3.0.1/index.html| Nonlinear noise reduction]. The functions I will need is: henon (for generating data), addnoise, ghkss and project. They cover all of the three categories I talked about in the first section. I have already reimplemented henon in m-file, it is accessible [http://agora.octave.org/snippet/hOzw/ here]. Both addnoise and project are in FORTRAN and need to be linked to C++ files and compiled into oct files. Lastly, ghkss is implemented in c and needs to be linked to a C++ oct file. | |||

Each FORTRAN file that need to be linked to an Oct file needs work done on it. I plan to take the following steps with each FORTRAN program: | Each FORTRAN file that need to be linked to an Oct file needs work done on it. I plan to take the following steps with each FORTRAN program: | ||

I plan to do similar steps for the c files. I believe this stage will be easier as the c code is much better organized and eliminating input validation & parsing, file inputs and outputs should be a much easier task. | I plan to do similar steps for the c files.
