Abstract
More than ten years ago Bandt and Pompe introduced a new measure to quantify complexity in measured time series. During these ten years, this measure has been modified and extended. In this review we will give a brief introduction to permutation entropy, explore the different fields of utilization where permutation entropy has been applied and provide a guide on how to choose appropriate parameters for different applications of permutation entropy.
