Fractional Brownian trails... constitutes an example of a statistically self similar fractal curve with the dimension D=1/0. 900=1. 1111. Its coordinate functions are independent fractional Brownian functions of exponent H=0. 9000, which implies that self intersections, though not strictly prohibited, are greatly discouraged by forcing the curve to be very persistent. 1, record 2, English, - fractional%20Brownian%20trail
