Abstract: We propose a new dissimilarity measure, sorting different time series and measuring their absolute and relative degree of disorganisation. This work compares this strategy with the state-of-the-art of dissimilarities or similarities measures, such as DTW, maximal information coefficient (MIC) and complexity-invariant distance (CID). Two clustering algorithms, one deterministic and one non-deterministic, K-means and hierarchical, allow us to analyse their results. To infer the accuracy, we use two different indexes, maximal HITS, and adjusted Rand index. The results of the experiments, over 128 different datasets, demonstrate that the proposed approach provides more accurate results for different domains using the proposed metrics.
