Dear all:

I am new in R and in Analysis of Chaotic Time Series. I have seen that the 
package tseriesChaos
can estimate the embedding dimension using the FNN. In this program 
false.nearest does the work,
but to use it, I need the escape factor(rt) and the neighborhood diameter (eps 
= sd(x)/10).
My problem is that I do not understand the definitions of these parameters.
I have read Kennel, Brown, and Abarbanel�s paper. There the authors suggest two 
criteria for the embedding dimension looking at the FNN. One is the ratio 
between the distances in d and d+1 dimensions, respectively. If such ratio is 
bigger than a threshold R_tol, then one has a false neighbor.
The second criterio is that R_{d+1} > A_{tol} x fractal size then one has a FNN.
 What these thresholds  R_{tol} and A_{tol}  have to do  with the escape factor 
and the eps?


I hope someone can help me.
Thanks
