Abstract

This study presents a computer program, developed to support a low-cost, portable telemetry system that has been designed to assess footfall timing. This software frees the user from data processing and allows concentration on data analysis. The new technique has been applied with accuracy and reliability to the analysis of the gait of orthopedic patients, athletes, mountaineers, etc. The subroutines developed for data acquisition, storage and analysis are explained in detail, and an example is presented.

Comment on "Kullback-Leibler and renormalized entropies: applications to electroencephalograms of epilepsy patients".

In a recent paper Quian Quiroga et al. [R. Quian Quiroga et al., Phys. Rev. E 62, 8380 (2000)] found renormalized entropy, formerly introduced as a complexity measure for the different regimes of a dynamical system, to be closely related to the standard Kullback-Leibler entropy. They assure this finding by reanalyzing electroencephalographic data of epilepsy patients, previously examined by exclusive use of renormalized entropy [K. Kopitzki et al., Phys. Rev. E 58, 4859 (1998)]. We argue that the general considerations undertaken by the authors and the experimental results do not justify this conclusion.
