Comment on "Universal and accessible entropy estimation using a compression algorithm"

Abstract

In a recent Letter [1] a framework for estimating entropy was introduced and applied to one-dimensional and two-dimensional systems. In this Comment we show that the method is not well suited for estimating entropy in bidimensional systems presenting long-range correlations.
