CRAN status CRAN_download CRAN_download_total

The R package tseriesEntropy implements an entropy measure of dependence based on the Bhattacharya-Hellinger-Matusita distance. It can be used as a (nonlinear) autocorrelation/crosscorrelation function for continuous and categorical time series. The package includes tests for serial and cross dependence and nonlinearity based on it. Some routines have a parallel version that can be used in a multicore/cluster environment. The package makes use of S4 classes.
