Generalized information theory for hints
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 2013 This paper develops a new uncertainty measure for the theory of hints that complies with the established semantics of statistical information theory and further satisfies all classical requirements for such a measure imposed in the literature. The proposed functional decomposes into conversant uncertainty measures and therefore discloses a new ...

Towards Generalizing the Information Theory for Neural Communication
Entropy, 2022 Neuroscience extensively uses the information theory to describe neural communication, among others, to calculate the amount of information transferred in neural communication and to attempt the cracking of its coding. There are fierce debates on how information is represented in the brain and during transmission inside the brain.

General Information Theory: Time and Information
CoRR, 2019 This paper introduces time into information theory, gives a more accurate definition of information, and unifies the information in cognition and Shannon information theory. Specially, we consider time as a measure of information, giving a definition of time, event independence at the time frame, and definition of conditional probability.

The Need for an Informational Systems Approach to Security
tripleC: Communication, Capitalism & Critique, 2011 Different senses of security and its related assumptions, methodologies and contexts are analyzed by first reviewing the liberalistic notions of security and trust, unveiling, on the one hand, the contradictions exhibited between discourse and practice ...

Maxwell’s Demon and Comoving Observers in General Relativity: What Do They Have in Common?
Proceedings, 2017 We elaborate on the similarities between the explanation of the well known Maxwell’s demon paradox, based on the theory of information, and the rationale behind the fact that real dissipative (entropy producing) processes may be detected by non–comoving ...

Maxwell’s Demon and the Problem of Observers in General Relativity
Entropy, 2018 The fact that real dissipative (entropy producing) processes may be detected by non-comoving observers (tilted), in systems that appear to be isentropic for comoving observers, in general relativity, is explained in terms of the information theory ...

Towards a Transdisciplinary Frame: Bridging Domains, a Multidimensional Approach to Information
tripleC: Communication, Capitalism & Critique, 2011 A trans-disciplinary frame is proposed, aimed at addressing the very understanding of information in all its variety. It aims at unifying perspectives and integrating techniques from different fields of knowledge and practice, searching for the most ...

World Structuration and Ontological Information
Proceedings, 2022 Based on the general theory of information (GTI), we study ontological information, which is complementary to the concept of mental information in general and epistemic information in particular.
