, 2016 Given a probability distribution p = (p1., pn) and an integer m < n, what is the probability distribution q = (q1., qm) that is 'the closest' to p, that is, that best approximates p?

No-free-information principle in general probabilistic theories [PDF]
Quantum, 2019 In quantum theory, the no-information-without-disturbance and no-free-information theorems express that those observables that do not disturb the measurement of another observable and those that can be measured jointly with any other observable must be trivial, i.e., coin tossing observables.

A General Theory of Information and Computation
CoRR, 2016 This paper fills a gap in our understanding of the interaction between information and computation. It unifies other approaches to measuring information like Kolmogorov complexity and Shannon information. We define a theory about information flow in deterministic computing based on three fundamental observations: 1) Information is measured in ...

Quantum information theory and the foundations of quantum mechanics
, 2004 This thesis is a contribution to the debate on the implications of quantum information theory for the foundational problems of quantum mechanics. In Part I an attempt is made to shed some light on the nature of information and quantum information theory.

Partially smoothed information measures [PDF]
, 2018 Smooth entropies are a tool for quantifying resource trade-offs in (quantum) information theory and cryptography. In typical bi- and multi-partite problems, however, some of the sub-systems are often left unchanged and this is not reflected by the ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes several rare overgrowth disorders resulting from somatic gain‐of‐function mutations in PIK3CA. Despite treatment advances, including the recent approval of alpelisib for PROS in the United States, literature detailing the patient experience with PROS is limited.

The Information Content of Systems in General Physical Theories [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2016 What kind of object is a quantum state? Is it an object that encodes an exponentially growing amount of information (in the size of the system) or more akin to a probability distribution? It turns out that these questions are sensitive to what we do with the information. For example, Holevo's bound tells us that n qubits only encode n bits of classical

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a chronic, inherited hemoglobinopathy that requires frequent hospitalization for disease‐related complications. Canadian data on inpatient care is limited. This study compared caregiver‐reported hospital experiences of children with SCD to those with cystic fibrosis (CF), a chronic, autosomal recessive ...

The application of foraging theory to the information searching behaviour of general practitioners
BMC Family Practice, 2011 Background General Practitioners (GPs) employ strategies to identify and retrieve medical evidence for clinical decision making which take workload and time constraints into account.

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.
