Measuring the Complexity of a Physiological Time Series: a Review

Abstract: Research background and hypothesis. Complex Systems Theory indeed is a solid basis for a scientific approach in the analysis of living, learning, and evolving systems. A number of different entropy estimators have been applied to physiological time series attempting to quantify its complexity. Research aim. The aim of the paper is to review most popular complexity estimators (entropies) applied in biological, medical, sport and exercise sciences and their performances.Research results. Various measures of comp… Show more

“…baroreflex) [70]. The extensive review and description of these methods is not a goal of this perspective article, but can be found in recent reviews [73,74,76,[79][80][81][82][83]. Most of these methods characterize the sensitivity of the system to the initial conditions and the resulting degree of predictability of the outputs.…”

“…Mathematical formalism is one of the ways to research the complexity of biological systems (Davis et al, 2010). The methods applied for the analysis of human data are very important because many crucial variables are not directly measureable or even identifiable (Torrents, Balagué, 2006;Poderys et al, 2010;Latash et al, 2010;Pukėnas et al, 2012).…”
