Abstract

The Shannon entropy of a time series is a standard measure to assess the complexity of a dynamical process and can be used to quantify transitions between different dynamical regimes. An alternative way of quantifying complexity is based on state recurrences, such as those available in recurrence quantification analysis. Although varying definitions for recurrence-based entropies have been suggested so far, for some cases they reveal inconsistent results. Here we suggest a method based on weighted recurrence plots and show that the associated Shannon entropy is positively correlated with the largest Lyapunov exponent. We demonstrate the potential on a prototypical example as well as on experimental data of a chemical experiment. (AU)
