Abstract:Objective: Transfer entropy (TE) has been widely used to infer causal relationships among dynamical systems, especially in neuroscience. Kendall transformation provides a novel quantization method for estimating information-theoretic measures and shows potential advantages for small-sample neural signals. But it has yet to be introduced into the framework of TE estimation, which commonly suffers from the limitation of small sample sizes. This paper aims to introduce the idea of Kendall correlation into TE esti… Show more
