+# NET: Ehlers Noise Elimination Technology
+
+**NET** applies Kendall Tau-a rank correlation to a rolling window of the input series. It measures the degree of monotonic trend: +1 means perfectly rising, −1 means perfectly falling, 0 means no trend. Unlike Pearson correlation (used in CTI), Kendall tau is nonparametric and robust to outliers.
+

+| **Source**      | TASC, December 2020          |
+| **Parameters** | period (int, default 14, ≥ 2) |
+| **Output**     | double, bounded [−1, +1]     |
+| **Inputs**     | Single series (Close, HL2, etc.) |
+
+## Historical Context
+
+Published in *Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities* (December 2020), "Noise Elimination Technology — Clarify Your Indicators Using Kendall Correlation." Ehlers applies rank-order statistics to filter noise from any indicator output or price series without adding lag (unlike smoothing filters).
+
+## Architecture & Physics
+
+### Kendall Tau-a Concordance
+
+For a window of $N$ values $X_0$ (newest) through $X_{N-1}$ (oldest), compute all $\binom{N}{2}$ pairs:
+
+$$\tau = \frac{\sum_{i>k} -\text{sgn}(X_i - X_k)}{\frac{N(N-1)}{2}}$$
+
+Where $i$ indexes older values and $k$ indexes newer values. When the series is rising (newer > older), $\text{sgn}(X_i - X_k) < 0$, so $-\text{sgn} > 0$, yielding positive $\tau$.
+
+### No IIR State
+
+NET is purely FIR — the output depends only on the current window contents. No recursive state means:
+- Zero floating-point drift
+- Perfect reset/restart behavior
+- Bar correction is trivial (just replace newest buffer value)
+
+### Bounded Output
+
+The denominator $\frac{N(N-1)}{2}$ equals the total number of pairs. The numerator can range from $-\frac{N(N-1)}{2}$ (all discordant) to $+\frac{N(N-1)}{2}$ (all concordant), so $\tau \in [-1, +1]$.
+
+## Performance Profile
+
+### Operation Count (Streaming Mode, Scalar)
+
+| Operation             | Count per bar        |
+| :-------------------- | :------------------- |
+| Comparisons (Sign)    | $\frac{N(N-1)}{2}$  |
+| Subtractions          | $\frac{N(N-1)}{2}$  |
+| Accumulation          | $\frac{N(N-1)}{2}$  |
+| Final division        | 1 multiply           |
+
+For $N = 14$: $\frac{14 \times 13}{2} = 91$ pair evaluations per bar.
+
+### Batch Mode (SIMD Analysis)
+
+Not SIMD-friendly: the inner loop has data-dependent branching (`Math.Sign`). The O(N²) nested loop structure prevents vectorization. For typical $N \leq 20$, the absolute cost is negligible.
+
+### Quality Metrics
+
+| Metric                  | Rating |
+| :---------------------- | :----- |
+| Lag (bars)              | 0 (no smoothing applied) |
+| Overshoot              | None (bounded output) |
+| Noise sensitivity      | Low (rank-based, immune to outlier magnitudes) |
+| Computational cost     | O(N²) per bar |
+| Memory                 | O(N) — one RingBuffer |
+
+## Validation
+
+Validated against mathematical properties of Kendall Tau-a:
+- Perfectly rising sequence → $\tau = +1$
+- Perfectly falling sequence → $\tau = -1$
+- Constant input → $\tau = 0$
+- Random input → $|\tau|$ small
+- Bounded: all outputs $\in [-1, +1]$
+
+### Behavioral Test Summary
+
+| Test Category          | Tests | Description |
+| :--------------------- | :---- | :---------- |
+| Constructor            | 3     | Period validation, default values |
+| Basic Calculation      | 4     | Core algorithm correctness |
+| State / Bar Correction | 4     | Rollback consistency |
+| Warmup / Convergence   | 3     | Cold → hot transition |
+| Robustness             | 3     | NaN, Infinity, edge cases |
+| Consistency            | 4     | All API modes match |
+| Span API               | 2     | ReadOnlySpan paths |
+| Chainability           | 2     | Event pipeline |
+| NET-Specific           | 8     | Kendall properties, boundary conditions |
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+1. **Period too large**: O(N²) cost grows quadratically. Keep $N \leq 50$ for real-time use.
+2. **Not a smoother**: NET does not smooth the input — it measures monotonic trend strength. Use it to filter *decisions*, not to filter *price*.
+3. **Ties**: Tau-a does not adjust for ties. In continuous financial data, exact ties are rare. If ties are common (e.g., rounded data), consider Tau-b.
+4. **Zero during warmup**: Before the buffer fills, NET returns 0 (not NaN). Check `IsHot` for valid readings.
