Permutation entropy (PE) is applied on time series of plasma measurements. PE is a single number that represents the information rate to derive the ordinal properties of a time series. Here, we systematically characterize, by means of the PE, highly sampled multi-variate signals from a 32-channel electron cyclotron emission radiometer. Being capable to detect changes in bulk data, core localized spatio-temporal bifurcations of the plasma states were revealed from changes of the PE. Hereby, spontaneous transitions to high core-electron temperatures (Te) were detected at different heating powers and densities in the so-called low-iota configuration of W7-X. The transitions have been seen to go along with the occurrence of low frequency MHD activity, which ceases when Te increases. It is this MHD activity which PE is sensitive to. While visual a-posteriori inspection of the (noisy) data results in similar findings, the time to identify changes is much reduced. Therefore, PE is suggested to be employed for machine learning techniques to identify plasma state changes.
