Claim 0:
1. A method for determining connectivity within a dynamic system represented by complex spatio-temporal data, the method comprising, in a computer processor:
inputting signal data corresponding to the dynamic system into the computer processor, the signal data comprising points within a lattice;
ranking a plurality of optimal paths within the lattice according to path entropy, wherein the rankings are arranged in a coupling matrix;
using eigenvalues and eigenvectors from the coupling matrix to construct an information Hamiltonian;
estimating mode amplitudes corresponding to spatially and temporally interacting modes of the information Hamiltonian, wherein the mode amplitudes correspond to space and time localization patterns; and
generating an output comprising a display of space and time localization patterns that are indicative of connectivity within the dynamic system.
