title: A maximum likelihood approach to correlation dimension and entropy estimation.
abstract: To obtain the correlation dimension and entropy from an experimental time series we derive estimators for these quantities together with expressions for their variances using a maximum likelihood approach. The validity of these expressions is supported by Monte Carlo simulations. We illustrate the use of the estimators with a local recording of atrial fibrillation obtained from a conscious dog.
