Largest Lyapunov Exponents (LLE) for each time series sample in (A) Clinical data (100 samples, every 24 hour swabs for 60 days), (B) Clinical data (25 samples, every 6 hour swabs for 60 days), and (C) Model simulation data (98 simulated samples, 100 swabs/day).

<p>LLEs were positive for all samples in data sets (B) and (C), but negative for a few samples in data set (A).
