Random shuffling of the data Filter with an AR linear model and shuffle the residuals 2.Gaussian linear stochastic: process completely specified by its mean, variance, and auto-correlation, or equivalently Fourier amplitudes. Random shuffling of Fourier amplitudes General constrained randomization (same autocorr)

We can include information about the “similarity” of the attractors introducing the “transportation distance” Problem: how does it cost going from configuration P to Q? The “transportation distance” is the combination of moves with the overall minimum cost The transportation distance is efficiently solved by a transshipment problem algorithm [Moeckel and Murray, 1997]. It is based on both geometrical and probabilistic and it is less sensitive to outliers, noise and discretization errors.
