Generalized information theory for hints

open access: yesInternational 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

open access: yesEntropy, 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

open access: yesCoRR, 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.

Is Information Physical and Does It Have Mass?

open access: yesInformation, 2022
Some researchers suggest that information is a form of matter, calling it the fifth state of matter or the fifth element. Recent results from the general theory of information (GTI) contradict this. This paper aims to explain and prove that the claims of

An Inquiry Concerning the Persistence of Physical Information

open access: yesPhilosophies, 2023
Physical information is a property of nature. How does physical information persist over time? Does it do so as an object, process, or event, which are things considered in the current persistence theories? Physical information is none of these, however,

General Theory of Information, Digital Genome, Large Language Models, and Medical Knowledge-Driven Digital Assistant

open access: yesComputer Sciences & Mathematics Forum, 2023
Recent advances in large language models, our understanding of the general theory of information, and the availability of new approaches to building self-regulating domain-specific software are driving the creation of next-generation knowledge-driven ...

World Structuration and Ontological Information

open access: yesProceedings, 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.
