An Iterative Information-Theoretic Approach to the Detection of Structures in Complex Systems

Table 5

Chain of dependencies case: RSs found in the main iterations of the sieving algorithm and corresponding values with . In iteration 1, we also show the RSs ranked second and third. At the end of each iteration, the RS with the highest is grouped into a single variable for the next iteration.
