Complexity measures from interaction structures.
We evaluate information-theoretic quantities that quantify complexity in terms of kth-order statistical dependences that cannot be reduced to interactions among k-1 random variables. Using symbolic dynamics of coupled maps and cellular automata as model systems, we demonstrate that these measures are able to identify complex dynamical regimes.
