pyhctsa.operations.information.rm_automutual_information

pyhctsa.operations.information.rm_automutual_information(y, tau=1)

Estimates the mutual information of two stationary signals with independent pairs of samples using various approaches.

Based on a wrapper initially developed by Ben D. Fulcher in MATLAB, which is based on rm_information.py initially developed by Rudy Moddemeijer in MATLAB, and translated to to python by Tucker Cullen.

Parameters:
y : array-like

The input time series.

tau : int

Time lag for automutual information calculation

Returns:

Estimate of the auto-mutual information

Return type:

float
