A Characterization of Entropy in Terms of Information Loss

open access: yesEntropy, 2011
There are numerous characterizations of Shannon entropy and Tsallis entropy as measures of information obeying certain properties. Using work by Faddeev and Furuichi, we derive a very simple characterization.

Entropy exchange, coherent information and concurrence

open access: yes, 2007
For a simple model we derive analytic expressions of entropy exchange and coherent information, from which relations between them and the concurrence are drawn. We find that in the quantum evolution the entropy exchange exhibits behavior \textsl{opposite}

Information Fusion in a Multi-Source Incomplete Information System Based on Information Entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
As we move into the information age, the amount of data in various fields has increased dramatically, and data sources have become increasingly widely distributed.

A Unifying Variational Perspective on Some Fundamental Information Theoretic Inequalities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper proposes a unifying variational approach for proving and extending some fundamental information theoretic inequalities. Fundamental information theory results such as maximization of differential entropy, minimization of Fisher information ...

An information fractal dimensional relative entropy

open access: yesAIP Advances
Shannon entropy is used to measure information uncertainty, while the information dimension is used to measure information complexity. Given two probability distributions, the difference can be measured by relative entropy. However, the existing relative

Entropy/information flux in Hawking radiation

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2018
Blackbody radiation contains (on average) an entropy of 3.9±2.5 bits per photon. If the emission process is unitary, then this entropy is exactly compensated by “hidden information” in the correlations.

Improved method for detecting weak abrupt information based on permutation entropy

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
As a dynamic detecting method for abrupt information, permutation entropy could effectively reflect the subtle change in time series data, which is also simple and can be computed conveniently.

Relative information entropy in cosmology: The problem of information entanglement

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2016
The necessary information to distinguish a local inhomogeneous mass density field from its spatial average on a compact domain of the universe can be measured by relative information entropy.
