Measuring Coupling of Rhythmical Time Series Using Cross Sample Entropy and Cross Recurrence Quantification Analysis

Figure 3

Plots of xSE and cRQA measures for simulated signals exhibiting different types of fluctuating patterns. Frequency manipulations are shown in (a), amplitude manipulations are shown in (b), and the combination of frequency and amplitude manipulations is shown in (c). Fluctuations within the signal are periodic (blue, dashed), random (black, solid), and chaotic (red, dot dash).
