The meanings of entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2005
: Entropy is a basic physical quantity that led to various, and sometimes apparently conflicting interpretations. It has been successively assimilated to different concepts such as disorder and information.

Rényi Entropies of Dynamical Systems: A Generalization Approach [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mahani Mathematical Research, 2023
Entropy measures have received considerable attention in quantifying the structural complexity of real-world systems and are also used as measures of information obtained from a realization of the considered experiments. In the present study, new notions

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 ...

Universality Classes and Information-Theoretic Measures of Complexity via Group Entropies [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
AbstractWe introduce a class of information measures based on group entropies, allowing us to describe the information-theoretical properties of complex systems. These entropic measures are nonadditive, and are mathematically deduced from a series of natural axioms.

The Information Loss of a Stochastic Map

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
We provide a stochastic extension of the Baez–Fritz–Leinster characterization of the Shannon information loss associated with a measure-preserving function. This recovers the conditional entropy and a closely related information-theoretic measure that we

Informational Measure of Symmetry vs. Voronoi Entropy and Continuous Measure of Entropy of the Penrose Tiling. Part II of the “Voronoi Entropy vs. Continuous Measure of Symmetry of the Penrose Tiling” [PDF]

open access: yesSymmetry, 2021
The notion of the informational measure of symmetry is introduced according to: Hsym(G)=−∑i=1kP(Gi)lnP(Gi), where P(Gi) is the probability of appearance of the symmetry operation Gi within the given 2D pattern. Hsym(G) is interpreted as an averaged uncertainty in the presence of symmetry elements from the group G in the given pattern. The informational

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.

Alternative Entropy Measures and Generalized Khinchin–Shannon Inequalities

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
The Khinchin–Shannon generalized inequalities for entropy measures in Information Theory, are a paradigm which can be used to test the Synergy of the distributions of probabilities of occurrence in physical systems.

Tsallis Mutual Information for Document Classification

open access: yesEntropy, 2011
Mutual information is one of the mostly used measures for evaluating image similarity. In this paper, we investigate the application of three different Tsallis-based generalizations of mutual information to analyze the similarity between scanned ...

Aspects of Holographic Entanglement at Finite Temperature and Chemical Potential [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate the behavior of entanglement entropy at finite temperature and chemical potential for strongly coupled large-N gauge theories in $d$-dimensions ($d\ge 3$) that are dual to Anti-de Sitter-Reissner-Nordstrom geometries in $(d+1)-$dimensions,
