TLDR
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

The effect of muscle fatigue and low back pain on lumbar movement variability and complexity
Christoph Bauer,Christoph Bauer,Fabian Rast,Markus Ernst,André Meichtry,Jan Kool,Saara M. Rissanen,Jaana Suni,Markku Kankaanpää +8 more
TL;DR: The effects indicate that pain free participants showed more complex and less predictable lumbar movement with a lower degree of structure in its variability following fatigue while participants suffering from LBP did not.

Singular hydrophobicity patterns and net charge: a mesoscopic principle for protein aggregation/folding
Joseph P. Zbilut,Julie C. Mitchell,Alessandro Giuliani,Alfredo Colosimo,Norbert Marwan,Charles L. Webber +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a statistical model describing the propensity for protein aggregation is presented, where only amino acid hydrophobicity values and calculated net charge are used for the model and the combined effects of hydrophobic patterns as computed by the signal analysis technique, recurrence quantification, plus calculated Net Charge were included in a function emphasizing the effect of singular hydrophilic patches which were found to be statistically significant for predicting aggregation propensity as quantified by fluorescence studies obtained from the literature.

Non-linear features of the electron temperature gradient mode and electron thermal transport in tokamaks
TL;DR: In this paper, it is argued that nonlinearity, turbulence and transport are dominated by radially extended modes called ''streamers'' and a non-linear mechanism generating streamers based on a modulational instability theory of the ETG turbulence is also presented.

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.
