Transfer Entropy
Statistical relationships among the variables of a complex system reveal a lot about its physical behavior. Therefore, identification of the relevant variables and characterization of their interactions are crucial for a better understanding of a complex system. Correlation-based techniques have been widely utilized to elucidate the linear statistical dependencies in many science and enginee…
