An Introduction to Transfer Entropy
Information Flow in Complex Systems
Terry Bossomaier, Lionel Barnett, Michael Harré, Joseph T. Lizier
This book considers a relatively new metric in complex systems, transfer entropy, derived from a series of measurements, usually a time series. After a qualitative introduction and a chapter that explains the key ideas from statistics required to understand the text, the authors then present information theory and transfer entropy in depth. A key f...
