สรุป	Convergent Cross Mapping (CCM) is a nonlinear, state-space method for detecting causality between time-series variables embedded in a shared dynamical system. Introduced by George Sugihara and colleagues in their landmark 2012 Science paper, CCM exploits Takens' embedding theorem: if variable X causally influences Y, the historical record of Y contains enough information to recover the states of X. Causality is confirmed when cross-map skill improves—converges—as the time-series library grows longer.	The Granger causality test, introduced by Clive W. J. Granger in 1969, assesses whether the past values of one time series help predict another beyond what the latter's own past already explains. It defines causality in a strictly predictive sense rather than as a structural or physical cause.	Recurrence Quantification Analysis (RQA) is a nonlinear method for characterizing the dynamics of a time series by quantifying the small-scale structure of its recurrence plot. Introduced in its modern, comprehensive form by Marwan, Romano, Thiel, and Kurths in 2007, RQA extracts scalar measures — such as recurrence rate, determinism, laminarity, and Shannon entropy — that capture periodicity, chaos, stationarity, and transitions in complex dynamical systems.
