Abstract: Recurrence entropy (calS) is a novel time series complexity quantifier based on recurrence microstates. Here we show that mathsfmax(calS) is a extit{parameter-free} quantifier of time correlation of stochastic and chaotic signals, at the same time that it evaluates property changes of the probability distribution function (PDF) of the entire data set. mathsfmax(calS) can distinguish distinct temporal correlations of stochastic signals following a power-law spectrum, displaystyleP(f)propto1/falpha even when shuffled versions of the signals are used. Such behavior is related to its ability to quantify distinct subsets embedded in a time series. Applied to a deterministic system, the method brings new evidence about attractor properties and the degree of chaoticity. The development of a new parameter-free quantifier of stochastic and chaotic time series opens new perspectives to stochastic data and deterministic time series analyses and may find applications in many areas of science.
