What is Entropic Analysis of non-Stationary Sequences about?

The aim of this paper is to shed light on the analysis of non-stationary time series by means of the method of diffusion entropy. For this purpose, we first study the case when infinitely many time series, as different realizations of the same dynamic process, are available, so as to adopt the Gibbs ensemble perspective. We solve the problem of establishing under which conditions scaling emerges from within this perspective. Then, we study the more challenging problem of creating a diffusion process from only one single (non-stationary) time series. The conversion of this single sequence into many diffusional trajectories is equivalent to creating a non-Gibbsian ensemble. However, adopting a probabilistic approach to evaluate the contribution of any system of this non-Gibbsian ensemble, and using for it the theoretical Gibbsian prescription of the earlier case, we find a recipe that fits accurately the numerical results. With the help of this recipe we show that nonstationary time series produce either anomalous scaling with ordinary statistics or ordinary scaling with anomalous statistics. From this recipe we also derive an attractive way to explain the entropy time evolution, as
