IBS is a novel method for comparing time series based on linguistic analysis of "word" frequency and rank order statistics. It has been applied successfully in a variety of applications, including analysis of interbeat (RR) intervals, classification of the SARS coronavirus, and study of literary works of disputed authorship.
A tutorial introduction to the IBS method is available here, and IBS software may be downloaded from here.
