MESA Adaptive Moving Average

MESA Adaptive Moving Average is an adaptive recursive average whose smoothing rate responds to estimated phase change in the input cycle.

Also known asMAMA

Definitions

In plain terms

It is paired with a slower following adaptive moving average and uses bounded fast and slow limits.

Technical

Exact output requires a fully pinned signal-processing implementation, coefficients, state, clamps, seed, warm-up, and numerical precision.

Scope

MAMA is not KAMA and its MESA name does not make every implementation identical.

Examples

  • A governed lesson uses MESA Adaptive Moving Average only with declared inputs, timing, parameters, and edge-case behavior.

Common misconceptions

  • MAMA is not KAMA and its MESA name does not make every implementation identical.

    Limits: The abstract alone is insufficient for code parity; exact coefficients, state, clamps, and warm-up require a pinned implementation contract.
