Abstract
The paper presents a study of temporal dependence in nonlinear transformations of time series. We examine the effects of parametric transformations on autocorrelation values and the persistence range with special emphasis on long memory processes. We derive an invariance property for the order of fractional integration of transformed normal processes and propose a related specification test. Within the class of nonlinear time series transforms, we identify those which maximize autocorrelations at selected lags. This procedure is based on nonlinear canonical correlations analysis adapted to serially correlated data. The methods proposed in this paper may be applied to various financial time series that usually are transformed prior to estimation, like returns, volumes or inter‐trade durations. In examples illustrating our approach, we use series of durations between trades of the Alcatel stock on the Paris Bourse.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
