A mini-introduction to information theory

La Rivista del Nuovo Cimento, 2018
This article consists of a very short introduction to classical and quantum information theory. Basic properties of the classical Shannon entropy and the quantum von Neumann entropy are described, along with related concepts such as classical and quantum

ALGORITHMIC INFORMATION THEORY

IBM Journal of Research and Development, 1977
Chaitin, the inventor of algorithmic information theory, presents in this book the strongest possible version of Gödel's incompleteness theorem, using an information theoretic approach based on the size of computer programs. One half of the book is concerned with studying the halting probability of a universal computer if its program is chosen by ...

Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms

, 2005
The fundamental step in a systematic development of analytical methods for Markov processes, particularly, for processes with stationary and independent increments (PSI), was taken by Kolmogorov (1931).

INFORMATION THEORY

British Journal of Applied Physics, 1953
Publisher Summary The “information rate” of a communication system might be defined as the average gain of information per unit time at the receiving end, and one of the most engaging problems of communication theory is to calculate the maximum value of the information rate under various conditions.

Information Theory

1993
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the concepts of information and the related quantity entropy. Mutual and self-information concepts are applied to various models for communications channels. In nature, it is found that self-contained systems change from more highly organized structures to less organized ones, that is, from states of higher ...

The Integrated Information Theory of Consciousness

, 2017
The integrated information theory (IIT) starts from phenomenology and makes a critical use of thought experiments, to claim that consciousness is integrated information. Specifically: (1) the quantity of consciousness is given by the amount of integrated

The Nature of Theory in Information Systems

MIS Q., 2006
The aim of this research essay is to examine the structural nature of theory in Information Systems. Despite the importance of theory, questions relating to its form and structure are neglected in comparison with questions relating to epistemology.

Information theory and genetics [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Bulletin of Mathematical Biophysics, 1965
A description of the kinds of systems susceptible to information theoretical analysis is given. By means of an example, certain common fallacies in the application of communication theory to biology are illustrated. The entropy-information analogy is discussed.

A history of the theory of information

Proceedings of the IEE - Part III: Radio and Communication Engineering, 1951
The paper mentions first some essential points about the early development of languages, codes and symbolism, picking out those fundamental points in human communication which have recently been summarized by precise mathematical theory. A survey of telegraphy and telephony development leads to the need for “economy,” which has given rise to various ...
