Properties of Risk Measures of Generalized Entropy in Portfolio Selection

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
This paper systematically investigates the properties of six kinds of entropy-based risk measures: Information Entropy and Cumulative Residual Entropy in the probability space, Fuzzy Entropy, Credibility Entropy and Sine Entropy in the fuzzy space, and ...

Entropy Measures of Probabilistic Linguistic Term Sets

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2018
The probabilistic linguistic term sets (PLTSs) are powerful to deal with the hesitant linguistic situation in which each provided linguistic term has a probability.

Entropy, Shannon’s Measure of Information and Boltzmann’s H-Theorem [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
We start with a clear distinction between Shannon’s Measure of Information (SMI) and the Thermodynamic Entropy. The first is defined on any probability distribution; and therefore it is a very general concept. On the other hand Entropy is defined on a very special set of distributions. Next we show that the Shannon Measure of Information (SMI) provides

On Dynamical Measures of Quantum Information [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
In this work, we use the theory of quantum states over time to define joint entropy for timelike-separated quantum systems. For timelike-separated systems that admit a dual description as being spacelike-separated, our notion of entropy recovers the ...

Quantifying Aleatoric and Epistemic Uncertainty in Machine Learning: Are Conditional Entropy and Mutual Information Appropriate Measures? [PDF]

open access: yesConference on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence, 2022
The quantification of aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty in terms of conditional entropy and mutual information, respectively, has recently become quite common in machine learning.

Identifying Influential Nodes in Complex Networks Based on Multiple Local Attributes and Information Entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
Identifying influential nodes in complex networks has attracted the attention of many researchers in recent years. However, due to the high time complexity, methods based on global attributes have become unsuitable for large-scale complex networks.

Some Information Measures Properties of the GOS-Concomitants from the FGM Family

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In this paper we recall, extend and compute some information measures for the concomitants of the generalized order statistics (GOS) from the Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern (FGM) family.

Information Entropy as a Reliable Measure of Nanoparticle Dispersity [PDF]

open access: yesChemistry of Materials, 2020
Nanoparticle size impacts properties vital to applications ranging from drug delivery to diagnostics and catalysis. As such, evaluating nanoparticle size dispersity is of fundamental importance. Conventional approaches, such as standard deviation, usually require the nanoparticle population to follow a known distribution and are illequipped to deal ...

Recent developments in quantitative graph theory: information inequalities for networks. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
In this article, we tackle a challenging problem in quantitative graph theory. We establish relations between graph entropy measures representing the structural information content of networks.
