Structural Validation Beyond PSD
A spectral-geometry approach to detecting structural mismatch in time-series systems.
SOHM Research Labs develops a spectral-geometry diagnostic basis for comparing time-series signals beyond power spectral density and autocorrelation.
The method extracts four coordinates from delay-embedded trajectory matrices — Gap, SMK, Alignment, and Entropy — to measure structural differences in signal dynamics.
In controlled experiments on turbulence data, different error types produce distinct signatures across the basis, enabling detection and classification of structural mismatch.
Primary Applications:
- Digital twin validation
- Simulation model comparison
- Solver regression testing
- Process monitoring
What This Enables:
- Detection of structural mismatch missed by PSD-based metrics
- Consistent signatures across distortion types
- Localized identification of model failure
- Basis-level comparison across simulations
Evaluation:
A technical demonstration package is available upon request, including:
- Runnable comparison script
- Example signals
- Visual diagnostics
- Reproducible test cases
