By employing a complexity measure designed for natural patterns, we find that the complexity of a coffee-milk system never decreases if the system is appropriately characterized in terms of dimension and resolution. Also, this complexity aligns experimentally and theoretically with entropy.","summary":"Full paper abstract and significance establishing statistical link between complexity and entropy in natural patterns.","claim_ids":["c1","c2","c3","c4"],"found_by":"grok/grok-4.3","extra":{},"accessed_at":"2026-07-08T21:08:11.005Z","link_status":"http_403","quote_status":"unverified","prev":"genesis","hash":"4f290ed15c55358735635925b24daf904f9bb89db19d046c3c01da4a31b349be"}]}
