Shannon entropy H and related measures are increasingly used in molecular ecology and population genetics because (1) unlike measures based on heterozygosity or allele number, these measures weigh alleles in proportion to their population fraction, thus ...

ABSTRACT Ongoing evidence indicates increased risk of sarcopenic obesity among children and young people (CYP) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), often beginning early in treatment, persisting into survivorship. This review evaluates current literature on body composition in CYP with ALL during and after treatment.

Generalizing Information to the Evolution of Rational Belief
Information theory provides a mathematical foundation to measure uncertainty in belief. Belief is represented by a probability distribution that captures our understanding of an outcome’s plausibility.

On Convergence Properties of Shannon Entropy
Convergence properties of Shannon Entropy are studied. In the differential setting, it is shown that weak convergence of probability measures, or convergence in distribution, is not enough for convergence of the associated differential entropies.

A Characterization of Entropy in Terms of Information Loss
There are numerous characterizations of Shannon entropy and Tsallis entropy as measures of information obeying certain properties. Using work by Faddeev and Furuichi, we derive a very simple characterization.

Shannon entropy and complexity measures for Bohr Hamiltonian with triaxial nuclei
The Shannon entropy, disequilibrium, and complexity measures for n=0,1 in position and momentum space are investigated within the framework of Bohr Hamiltonian for triaxial nuclei with Davidson potential. The effect of the angular momentum quantum number

Entropy, Measures of Distance and Similarity of Q-Neutrosophic Soft Sets and Some Applications
The idea of the Q-neutrosophic soft set emerges from the neutrosophic soft set by upgrading the membership functions to a two-dimensional entity which indicate uncertainty, indeterminacy and falsity.

ABSTRACT Objectives To identify predictors of chronic ITP (cITP) and to develop a model based on several machine learning (ML) methods to estimate the individual risk of chronicity at the timepoint of diagnosis. Methods We analyzed a longitudinal cohort of 944 children enrolled in the Intercontinental Cooperative immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) Study ...

We introduce notions of information/entropy and information loss associated to exponentiable motivic measures. We show that they satisfy appropriate analogs to the Khinchin-type properties that characterize information loss in the context of measures on ...
