An information theory for preferences [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2003 Recent literature in the last Maximum Entropy workshop introduced an analogy between cumulative probability distributions and normalized utility functions. Based on this analogy, a utility density function can de defined as the derivative of a normalized

Information field theory [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2013 Non-linear image reconstruction and signal analysis deal with complex inverse problems. To tackle such problems in a systematic way, I present information field theory (IFT) as a means of Bayesian, data based inference on spatially distributed signal ...

Recoverability in quantum information theory [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society A, 2015 The fact that the quantum relative entropy is non-increasing with respect to quantum physical evolutions lies at the core of many optimality theorems in quantum information theory and has applications in other areas of physics. In this work, we establish

Information Theory for Fields [PDF]
Annalen der Physik, 2018 A physical field has an infinite number of degrees of freedom since it has a field value at each location of a continuous space. Therefore, it is impossible to know a field from finite measurements alone and prior information on the field is essential ...

Metacognitive Information Theory. [PDF]
Open Mind (Camb), 2023 The capacity that subjects have to rate confidence in their choices is a form of metacognition, and can be assessed according to bias, sensitivity and efficiency. Rich networks of domain-specific and domain-general regions of the brain are involved in the rating, and are associated with its quality and its use for regulating the processes of thinking ...

The information theory of individuality [PDF]
Theory in Biosciences, 2020 AbstractDespite the near universal assumption of individuality in biology, there is little agreement about what individuals are and few rigorous quantitative methods for their identification. Here, we propose that individuals are aggregates that preserve a measure of temporal integrity, i.e., “propagate” information from their past into their futures ...

A Theory of the Informal Sector [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2002 In many countries, especially poor countries, a heavy burden of taxes, fees, bureaucratic hassles, and bribes drives many producers into an informal sector. This paper shows that we can attribute the existence of a large informal sector to the fact that, because productive endowments contain important unobservable components, the state cannot adjust ...

Information Theory in Game Theory [PDF]
Entropy, 2018 Information theory, as the mathematics of communication and storage of information, and game theory, as the mathematics of adversarial and cooperative strategic behaviour, are each successful fields of research on their own. [...]

Information Theory and the IrisCode [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security, 2016 Iris recognition has legendary resistance to False Matches, and the tools of information theory can help to explain why. The concept of entropy is fundamental to understanding biometric collision avoidance.
