The scope of the paper is to find signatures of the forces controlling complex systems modeled by Langevin equations, by recourse to information-theory quantifiers. We evaluate in detail the permutation entropy (PE) and the permutation statistical complexity (PSC) measures for two similarity...

Nowadays we are often faced with huge databases resulting from the rapid growth of data storage technologies. This is particularly true when dealing with music databases. In this context, it is essential to have techniques and tools able to discriminate properties from these massive sets. In...
