Abstract: The historical search for the fundamental meaning of thermodynamic entropy lead to the discovery of the connection between entropy and information about microscopic dynamics, which in turn motivated the development of the theory of information in communications. In this paper I will review how information theory can profitably be applied back to its roots in dynamics in order to characterize the essential properties of a measured time series. Entropy was introduced in the familiar modern form... (Update)
