Tsallis Entropy-Based Complexity-IPE Casualty Plane: A Novel Method for Complex Time Series Analysis
Abstract
Due to its capacity to unveil the dynamic characteristics of time series data, entropy has attracted growing interest. However, traditional entropy feature extraction methods, such as permutation entropy, fall short in concurrently considering both the absolute amplitude information of signals and the temporal correlation between sample points. Consequently, this limitation leads to inadequate differentiation among different time series and susceptibility to noise interference. In order to augment the discriminative power and noise robustness of entropy features in time series analysis, this paper introduces a novel method called Tsallis entropy-based complexity-improved permutation entropy casualty plane (TC-IPE-CP). TC-IPE-CP adopts a novel symbolization approach that preserves both absolute amplitude information and inter-point correlations within sequences, thereby enhancing feature separability and noise resilience. Additionally, by incorporating Tsallis entropy and weighting the probability distribution with parameter q, it integrates with statistical complexity to establish a feature plane of complexity and entropy, further enriching signal features. Through the integration of multiscale algorithms, a multiscale Tsallis-improved permutation entropy algorithm is also developed. The simulation results indicate that TC-IPE-CP requires a small amount of data, exhibits strong noise resistance, and possesses high separability for signals. When applied to the analysis of heart rate signals, fault diagnosis, and underwater acoustic signal recognition, experimental findings demonstrate that TC-IPE-CP can accurately differentiate between electrocardiographic signals of elderly and young subjects, achieve precise bearing fault diagnosis, and identify four types of underwater targets. Particularly in underwater acoustic signal recognition experiments, TC-IPE-CP achieves a recognition rate of 96.67%, surpassing the well-known multi-scale dispersion entropy and multi-scale permutation entropy by 7.34% and 19.17%, respectively. This suggests that TC-IPE-CP is highly suitable for the analysis of complex time series.
