Abstract
A study is conducted on time series data analysis relating the concept of the fractional calculus to fractals and to the fractal dimension. A new definition of the fractal dimension is provided based on a property of the fractional derivative. Using fractional Gaussian noise and fractional Brownian motion, simulations show the information content of a time series can be easily manipulated by the fractional derivative method and generated in real time.
