A method is proposed to detect the dynamical instability of complex time series. We focus on how the partitioned entropy of an initially localized region of the attractor evolves in time and show that its growth rate corresponds to the first Lyapunov exponent. To avoid spurious detection of the dynamical instability, a criterion is further introduced to distinguish chaos from limit cycles or tori. Numerical experiments using prototypical models of chaotic systems demonstrate that the growth rate of the partitioned entropy indeed provides a good estimate of the first Lyapunov exponent. The method is also shown to be robust against observational noise and dynamical noise. Analysis of experimental data measured from a physical model of the vocal folds highlights the practical applicability of the present method to real-world data. Advantages of the present method over conventional methods are also discussed.
