The conditions to be fulfilled by the signal are minimal; only those necessary to meet the sampling theorem requirement are enough. This work shows some examples in which the proposed methodology can distinguish among signals that cannot be differentiated by other in-use alternatives. Additionally an original example where the usual ordinal pattern algorithm to compute entropy is not applicable, is presented and analyzed. The proposal developed through this work carries some advantages over other alternatives and constitutes a true advancement in the pathway to compute the distribution function of the sequential points of 1D signals later used to compute the entropy of the signal.</p&gt;}, number={4}, journal={Statistics, Optimization & Information Computing}, author={Bonini, Cristian and Rey, Andrea and Otero, Dino and Amadio, Ariel and García Blesa, Manuel and Legnani, Walter}, year={2022}, month={Jun.}, pages={998-1020} }
