Normalized Compression Distance of Multisets with Applications [PDF]
Normalized compression distance (NCD) is a parameter-free, feature-free, alignment-free, similarity measure between a pair of finite objects based on compression. However, it is not sufficient for all applications.

Functional balance at rest of hemispheric homologs assessed via normalized compression distance [PDF]
IntroductionThe formation and functioning of neural networks hinge critically on the balance between structurally homologous areas in the hemispheres. This balance, reflecting their physiological relationship, is fundamental for learning processes.

Normalized compression distance for DNA classification [PDF]
Analyzing the origin and diversity of numerous genomic sequences, such as those sampled from the human microbiome, is an important first step in genomic analysis. The use of normalized compression distance (NCD) has demonstrated capabilities in the field

The Physics, Information, and Computation of Perennial Learning: Kolmogorov Complexity, Information Distance, and Port-Hamiltonian Thermodynamics [PDF]
Real-world autonomous agents learn under nonstationarity, safety constraints, and finite energetic budgets. We develop a framework for perennial learning—agents that continuously refine their models while provably controlling the cost of forgetting—by ...

On the Use of Normalized Compression Distances for Image Similarity Detection
This paper investigates the usefulness of the normalized compression distance (NCD) for image similarity detection. Instead of the direct NCD between images, the paper considers the correlation between NCD based feature vectors extracted for each image ...

Semantic Algorithmic Information Theory: From Kolmogorov Complexity to Semantic Equivalence [PDF]
Classical Algorithmic Information Theory (AIT) provides a rigorous foundation for information-based similarity measurement, but classical formulations and their compression-based approximations largely operate at the syntactic level, making them ...
