The developers of the SSA-MTM Toolkit are researchers attempting to make some useful time-series analysis methods more accessible to the scientific community. Although we use the tools ourselves and have made every effort to ensure their accuracy, we can not make any guarantees. We provide the Toolkit to you for free, but it is copyrighted.
