Dimension Estimation Using Weighted Correlation Dimension Method

Algorithm 1

The calculating procedure of WCD.
Input: Signal dataset .
Output: Intrinsic dimension .
(1) Normalize the dataset between 0 and 1, then the distance matrix can be constructed by .
(2) Construct the similarity matrix . Where is the variance
of the dataset. The vertex degree, that is the weighted vector is defined as .
(3) The scale sequences are computed by
, . Where is the number of the scale .
(4) Compute the local bulk at point . , .
(5) In the scale , the global bulk is computed .
(6) The linear part of the log-log sequence is selected by -means
method and a curve is fitted using linear part by the linear least square method.
(7) Correlation dimension is calculated by the slope of the curve. .
