This is a small set of functions on top of NumPy that help to compute different types of entropy for time series analysis.

The library provides functions for computing the following types of entropy:

• Shannon Entropy shannon_entropy
• Sample Entropy sample_entropy
• Multiscale Entropy multiscale_entropy
• Composite Multiscale Entropy composite_multiscale_entropy
• Permutation Entropy permutation_entropy
• Multiscale Permutation Entropy multiscale_permutation_entropy
• Weighted Permutation Entropy weighted_permutation_entropy

Quick start

pip install pyentrp

poetry add pyentrp

Usage

from pyentrp import entropy as ent
import numpy as np


ts = [1, 4, 5, 1, 7, 3, 1, 2, 5, 8, 9, 7, 3, 7, 9, 5, 4, 3]
std_ts = np.std(ts)
sample_entropy = ent.sample_entropy(ts, 4, 0.2 * std_ts)
