In symbolic dynamics, the definition of a symbolic sequence from a continuous times series depends on the use of an appropriate partition of the phase space. In fact, the best way is to estimate a generating partition. However, it is not possible to find generating partitions for most experimental observations because such partitions do not exist when noise is present. In this paper, different partition methods applied to stochastic and chaotic system will be compared in order to choose one which conserves system entropy rate. This partition is called a Markov partition.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
