The detection of critical states is a task of utmost importance in complex systems; to this aim, measures to identify such conditions are required. In general, the term criticality concerns the existence of two qualitatively different behaviours that a system can exhibit, which depends on some parameter values. In this short communication, we summarise our recent findings on the use of the Relevance Index to identify critical states in complex systems. Although the Relevance Index method was originally developed to identify relevant sets of variables in dynamical systems, we show that it is also able to detect features of criticality. The index is applied to two notable examples showing slightly different meanings of criticality, namely, the Ising model and Random Boolean Networks. Results show that this index is maximised at critical states and is robust with respect to system size and sampling effort.
