Influence of progressive central hypovolemia on multifractal dimension of cardiac interbeat intervals

Bruce J. West, Nicola Scafetta, William H. Cooke +1

We analyzed the heartbeat time series of 12 human subjects exposed to progressive central hypovolemia with lower body negative pressure. Two data processing techniques based on wav…

Statistical analysis of air and sea temperature anomalies

Nicola Scafetta, Tim Imholt, Paolo Grigolini +1

This paper presents a global air and sea temperature anomalies analysis based upon a combination of the wavelet multiresolution analysis and the scaling analysis methods of a time…

Complexity, multiresolution, non-stationarity and entropic scaling: Teen birth thermodynamics

Nicola Scafetta, Bruce J. West

This paper presents a statistical methodology for analyzing a complex phenomenon in which deterministic and scaling components are superimposed. Our approach is based on the wavele…

Non-extensive diffusion entropy analysis: non-stationarity in teen birth phenomena

N. Scafetta, P. Grigolini, P. Hamilton +1

A complex process is often a balance between non-stationary and stationary components. We show how the non-extensive Tsallis q-entropy indicator may be interpreted as a measure of…

The Thermodynamics of Social Processes: The Teen Birth Phenomenon

Nicola Scafetta, Patti Hamilton, Paolo Grigolini

We argue that a process of social interest is a balance of order and randomness, thereby producing a departure from a stationary diffusion process. The strength of this effect vani…
