Abstract

The paper proposes to apply the K-Fisher (KF) index and the complexity-entropy curves based on k-entropy into studying the time series. The KF index is a good extension of the traditional Shannon-Fisher (SF) index. In the complexity-entropy curves, the results show that the normalized k-entropy and its corresponding complexity has the same extreme value k=0.6, interestingly, the KF index is the smallest when k=0.6, which suggests that the time series with k=0.6 might be the most stable and verifies that the KF index is an effective tool to measure the stability of sequence. Furthermore, we conclude that this new complexity-entropy curves and the KF index could clearly distinguish financial stock indices and find that the stability of US stock indices are higher than the Australian and Chinese stock indices.
