ACMANT: WHY IS IT EFFICIENT?
Péter Domonkos · 2012
In the COST ES0601 project (COST HOME) a benchmark temperature and precipitation dataset (Benchmark) was developed for assessing the efficiencies of homogenisation methods via blind test experiments. In homogenising temperature data, the best performance was achieved with ACMANT. However, ACMANT was developed with the use of the Benchmark, thus its observed performance is not fully comparable with the blind tests results of other methods. Consequently, our knowledge about the true performance of ACMANT is limited. This study includes a brief analysis of the theoretical properties of ACMANT, as well as presents new experimental results. The aim of the study is to provide more information for the objective evaluation of ACMANT.
