Time-shift multiscale entropy analysis of physiological signals
Measures of predictability in physiological signals using entropy measures have been widely applied in many areas of research. Multiscale entropy expresses different levels of either approximate entropy or sample entropy by means of multiple factors for ...

Entropy and relative entropy measures play a crucial role in mathematical information theory. The relative entropies are also widely used in statistics under the name of divergence measures which link these two fields of science through the minimum ...

On the Measurement of Randomness (Uncertainty): A More Informative Entropy [PDF]
As a measure of randomness or uncertainty, the Boltzmann–Shannon entropy H has become one of the most widely used summary measures of a variety of attributes (characteristics) in different disciplines. This paper points out an often overlooked limitation of H: comparisons between differences in H-values are not valid. An alternative entropy H K

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Entropy, complexity, and spatial information [PDF]
We pose the central problem of defining a measure of complexity, specifically for spatial systems in general, city systems in particular. The measures we adopt are based on Shannon's (in Bell Syst Tech J 27:379-423, 623-656, 1948) definition of ...

A new parametric information-gain criterion for tree-based machine learning algorithms [PDF]
Decision Trees (DTs) remain one of the most important algorithms in machine learning for their simplicity, interpretability, and often satisfactory performance.

ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is an established home‐based kidney replacement therapy (KRT), but its uptake remains low in Japan. We evaluated whether individualized education in a dedicated outpatient clinic was associated with the initiation of PD.
