Comment on Wibral et al. (2013): Measuring information-transfer delays, PloS ONE 8(2): e55809

Abstract

Wibral et al. propose a measure of interaction delays rooted in an information-theoretic framework and contrast their measure with the bivariate momentary information transfer (MIT), introduced in Pompe, B., & Runge, J. (2011). Momentary information transfer as a coupling measure of time series. Phys. Rev. E, 83(5), 1-12. In this version we correct an error in a previous version of this comment.
