Significance levels for nonlinearity tests are as usually obtained by Monte Carlo resampling. In a new scheme, constraints including multivariate, nonlinear, and nonstationary properties are implemented in the form of a cost function.4 pages, 3 figures, needs nolta.styChaotic DynamicsConstrained randomization of time series for hypothesis testingtext
