Description

In a very recent paper it is suggested to obtain an adaptive recurrence threshold based on local maximum attractor densities/distances. Basically, the distance matrix gets scanned using a sliding window (window size is a free parameter, but can be related to the decorrelation time of the time series) and for each window the maximum distance is picked. In turn, this local maximum distance will be used to scale the recurrence threshold accordingly.

The paper and the shown results sound promising and the effort to implement it (and also the computational complexity itself) seems to be manageable I suppose.

Research direction

Start by reading the linked paper and comparing its adaptive threshold method with the repository's existing recurrence-threshold and distance-matrix entry points; no files or tests are named in the issue. Define the sliding-window behavior, window-size parameter, decorrelation-time relationship, and scaling rule, then validate the implementation against the paper's reported results.
