Summary:
We study the estimation of mutual information between pairs of simultaneous time series, taking into account temporal correlations within the time series. It is shown that an intimate relationship exists between parametric model fitting by MaximumLikelihood and estimation of mutual information. As a result it becomes possible to detect weak correlations within short spatiotemporal data sets, such as provided by the fMRI technique in neuroscience.
