Translational Recurrences

This book features 13 papers presented at the Fifth International Symposium on

Recurrence Plots, held August 2013 in Chicago, IL. It examines recent applications

and developments in recurrence plots and recurrence quantifi cation analysis (RQA)

with special emphasis on biological and cognitive systems and the analysis of coupled

systems using cross-recurrence methods.

Readers will discover new applications and insights into a range of systems provided

by recurrence plot analysis and new theoretical and mathematical developments in

recurrence plots. Recurrence plot based analysis is a powerful tool that operates on

real-world complex systems that are nonlinear, non-stationary, noisy, of any statistical

distribution, free of any particular model type, and not particularly long. Quantitative

analyses promote the detection of system state changes, synchronized dynamical

regimes, or classifi cation of system states.

Th e book will be of interest to an interdisciplinary audience of recurrence plot users

and researchers interested in time series analysis of complex systems in general.
