This paper illustrates how recurrence plots can take single physiological measurements, project them into multidimensional space by embedding procedures, and identify time correlations (recurrences) that are not apparent in the one-dimensional time series.Abstract:
Physiological systems are best characterized as complex dynamical processes that are continuously subjected to and updated by nonlinear feedforward and feedback inputs. System outputs usually exhibit wide varieties of behaviors due to dynamical interactions between system components, external noise perturbations, and physiological state changes. Complicated interactions occur at a variety of hierarchial levels and involve a number of interacting variables, many of which are unavailable for experimental measurement. In this paper we illustrate how recurrence plots can take single physiological measurements, project them into multidimensional space by embedding procedures, and identify time correlations (recurrences) that are not apparent in the one-dimensional time series. We extend the original description of recurrence plots by computing an array of specific recurrence variables that quantify the deterministic structure and complexity of the plot. We then demonstrate how physiological states can be assessed by making repeated recurrence plot calculations within a window sliding down any physiological dynamic. Unlike other predominant time series techniques, recurrence plot analyses are not limited by data stationarity and size constraints. Pertinent physiological examples from respiratory and skeletal motor systems illustrate the utility of recurrence plots in the diagnosis of nonlinear systems. The methodology is fully applicable to any rhythmical system, whether it be mechanical, electrical, neural, hormonal, chemical, or even spacial.read more

Early Detection of Agglomeration in Conical Spouted Beds Using Recurrence Plots
TL;DR: In this paper, the agglomeration of particles in a conical spouted bed was investigated using a recurrence plot (RP) and recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) of the pressure fluctuations (PFs) and acoustic emission (AE) signals.

Recurrence quantification analysis of electrochemical noise data during pit development
TL;DR: Recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) is used to study EN time series of stainless steel AISI 316 samples immersed in a mildly corrosive electrolyte and finds that RQA of current and potential time series reveal different information: current time series provides detailed information on the kinetics of the pitting corrosion process.

Statistical approaches for investigating silk properties
Joseph P. Zbilut,Thomas Scheibel,Daniel Huemmerich,Charles L. Webber,Mauro Colafranceschi,Alessandro Giuliani +5 more
TL;DR: Amino acid repeats or motifs have engendered interest because of their significance for protein physical characteristics as well as folding properties of spider dragline silk proteins as discussed by the authors, which are composed of long repetitive sections and relatively short non-repetitive sections that are known to interact to generate the very peculiar mechanical and solubility properties of silk.

Measuring the Strangeness of Strange Attractors
TL;DR: In this paper, the correlation exponent v is introduced as a characteristic measure of strange attractors which allows one to distinguish between deterministic chaos and random noise, and algorithms for extracting v from the time series of a single variable are proposed.

Embeddings and delays as derived from quantification of recurrence plots
TL;DR: Recurrence plots have been advocated as a useful diagnostic tool for the assessment of dynamical time series by quantifying certain features of these plots which may be helpful in determining embeddings and delays.

Fundamental limitations for estimating dimensions and Lyapunov exponents in dynamical systems
Jean-Pierre Eckmann,David Ruelle +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the correlation dimension of the Grassberger-Procaccia algorithm cannot exceed the value 2 log 10N if N is the number of points in the time series, and when this bound is saturated it is thus not legitimate to conclude that low dimensional dynamics is present.
