Noise Robustness of Transcript-Based Estimators for Properties of Interactions

open access: yesEntropy
We investigate the robustness of transcript-based estimators for properties of interactions against various types of noise, ranging from colored noise to isospectral noise.

Kenyan Farmers' Policy Priorities During Economic Crisis and Stability: Insights From a Best‐Worst Scaling Experiment

open access: yesApplied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amid rising food and fertilizer prices, understanding farmers' policy preferences is critical for effective crisis response. We use best‐worst scaling experiment to assess Kenyan mobile‐owning crop farmers' preferences for government support under high and normal price scenarios.

Including the Magnitude Variability of a Signal in the Ordinal Pattern Analysis

open access: yesEntropy
One of the most popular and innovative methods to analyse signals is by using Ordinal Patterns (OPs). The OP encoding is based on transforming a (univariate) signal into a symbolic sequence of OPs, where each OP represents the number of permutations ...

Entropic Measures of Complexity of Short-Term Dynamics of Nocturnal Heartbeats in an Aging Population

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
Two entropy-based approaches are investigated to study patterns describing differences in time intervals between consecutive heartbeats. The first method explores matrices arising from networks of transitions constructed following events represented by a

Identification of equivalent dynamics using ordinal pattern distributions

open access: yesThe European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2013
The frequency of occurrence of ordinal patterns in an observed (or measured) times series can be used to identify equivalent dynamical system. We demonstrate this approach for system identification and parameter estimation for dynamics that can (at least approximately) be described by one-dimensional iterated maps.

Farmers' Financial Literacy—Scale Development and Linkages to Accounting Practices and Financial Outcomes

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the financial literacy (FL) of Swedish farmers, its linkages to farmer characteristics, management accounting practices and farm outcomes by surveying Swedish Farm Accountancy Data Network farmers. Using item response theory, we expand the existing FL measurement specifically to the farming context, assess measurement ...

Quantifying Deviations from Gaussianity with Application to Flight Delay Distributions

open access: yesEntropy
We propose a novel approach for quantifying deviations from Gaussianity by leveraging the Jensen–Shannon distance. Using stable distributions as a flexible framework, we analyze the effects of skewness and heavy tails in synthetic sequences.

Climate Change Mitigation in the Dairy Sector: Uncovering Heterogeneity Through Eco‐Efficiency Clubs

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combining climate change goals with economic targets is crucial for the dairy sector, which is a significant contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions worldwide. In this paper, we assess economic and climate change implications of dairy production with panel data of Irish dairy farms from 2013 to 2021.

Revisiting the Characterization of Resting Brain Dynamics with the Permutation Jensen–Shannon Distance

open access: yesEntropy
Taking into account the complexity of the human brain dynamics, the appropriate characterization of any brain state is a challenge not easily met. Actually, even the discrimination of simple behavioral tasks, such as resting with eyes closed or eyes open,

Random Walk Null Models for Time Series Data

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Permutation entropy has become a standard tool for time series analysis that exploits the temporal and ordinal relationships within data. Motivated by a Kullback–Leibler divergence interpretation of permutation entropy as divergence from white noise, we ...
