Traditional visualisation of time series data often consists of
plotting the time series values against time and ?connecting the
dots?. We propose an alternative, multiscale visualisation technique,
motivated by the scale-space approach in computer vision. In brief,
our method also ?connects the dots?, but uses a range of pens of
varying thicknesses for this purpose. The resulting multiscale map,
termed the Thick-Pen Transform (TPT) corresponds to viewing the time
series from a range of distances. We formally prove that the TPT is a
discriminatory statistic for two Gaussian time series with distinct
correlation structures. Further, we show interesting possible
applications of the TPT to measuring cross-dependence in multivariate
time series, and to testing for stationarity. In particular, we derive
the asymptotic distribution of our test statistic, and argue that the
test is applicable to both linear and nonlinear processes under low
moment assumptions. Various other aspects of the methodology,
including other possible applications, are also discussed.
