The properties of complex networks derived from applying a compression algorithm to time series subject to symbolic ordinal-based encoding is explored. The information content of compression codewords can be used to detect forbidden symbolic patterns indicative of nonlinear determinism. The connectivity structure of ordinal-based compression networks summarized by their minimal cycle basis structure can also be used in tests for nonlinear determinism, in particular, detection of time irreversibility in a signal.

Detecting bifurcations in noisy and/or high-dimensional physical systems is an important problem in nonlinear dynamics. Near bifurcations, the dynamics of even a high dimensional system is typically dominated by its behavior on a low dimensional manifold. Since the system is sensitive to perturbations near bifurcations, they can be detected by looking at the apparent deterministic structure generated by the interaction between the noise and low-dimensional dynamics. We use minimal hidden Markov models built from the noisy time series to quantify this deterministic structure at the period-doubling bifurcations in the two-well forced Duffing oscillator perturbed by noise. The apparent randomness in the system is characterized using the entropy rate of the discrete stochastic process generated by partitioning time series data. We show that as the bifurcation parameter is varied, sharp changes in the statistical complexity and the entropy rate can be used to locate incipient bifurcations.

The focus of this study to measure the varying irreversibility of stock markets. A fundamental idea of this study is that financial systems are complex and nonlinear systems that are presented to be non-Gaussian fractal and chaotic. Their complexity and different aspects of nonlinear properties, such as time irreversibility, vary over time and for a long-range of scales. Therefore, our work presents approaches to measure the complexity and irreversibility of the time series. To the presented methods we include Guzik’s index, Porta’s index, Costa’s index, based on complex networks measures, Multiscale time irreversibility index and based on permutation patterns measures. Our study presents that the corresponding measures can be used as indicators or indicator-precursors of crisis states in stock markets.

Time irreversibility, i.e. the lack of invariance of the statistical properties of a system under time reversal, is a fundamental property of all systems operating out of equilibrium. Time reversal symmetry is associated with important statistical and physical properties and is related to the predictability of the system generating the time series. Over the past fifteen years, various methods to quantify time irreversibility in time series have been proposed, but these can be computationally expensive. Here we propose a new method, based on permutation entropy, which is essentially parameter-free, temporally local, yields straightforward statistical tests, and has fast convergence properties. We apply this method to the study of financial time series, showing that stocks and indices present a rich irreversibility dynamics. We illustrate the comparative methodological advantages of our method with respect to a recently proposed method based on visibility graphs, and discuss the implications of our results for financial data analysis and interpretation.
