Variance Stabilizing Power Transformation For Time Series, Victor M. Guerrero, Rafael Perera

Journal of Modern Applied Statistical Methods

A confidence interval was derived for the index of a power transformation that stabilizes the variance of a time-series. The process starts from a model-independent procedure that minimizes a coefficient of variation to yield a point estimate of the transformation index. The confidence coefficient of the interval is calibrated through a simulation.
