Analysis of the determinism of time-series extracted from social and biological systems

Abstract

Self-organizing systems arise in many different fields.In this work we analyze data from social and biological systems.A central question is to demonstrate the presence of thedeterminism in time-series extracted from such systems thatappear apparently not correlated but that are two goodbenchmarks for the study of complexity in real systems. We willapply the Kaplan test and we will define an order parameter forthe biological data to characterize the complexity of the system
