Complexity measures from interaction structures
Thomas Kahle, Eckehard Olbrich, Jürgen Jost, Nihat Ay · Physical Review E · 2009
We evaluate information-theoretic quantities that quantify complexity in terms of kth-order statistical dependences that cannot be reduced to interactions among k-1 random variables. Using symbolic dynamics of coupled maps and cellular automata as model systems, we demonstrate that these measures are able to identify complex dynamical regimes.
