We develop a criterion based on a brute-force algorithm to systematically determine optimal fitting regions for fluctuation functions in Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA) and Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (MF-DFA). We analyze and compare results with several artificially...

Wavelet Leaders is a novel alternative based on wavelet analysis for estimating the Multifractal Spectrum. It was proposed by Jaffard and co-workers improving the usual wavelet methods. In this work, we analyze and compare it with the well known Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Analysis. The...
