First Digits’ Shannon Entropy [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 Related to the letters of an alphabet, entropy means the average number of binary digits required for the transmission of one character. Checking tables of statistical data, one finds that, in the first position of the numbers, the digits 1 to 9 occur ...

Shannon entropy and particle decays [PDF]
Nuclear Physics B, 2018 We deploy Shannon's information entropy to the distribution of branching fractions in a particle decay. This serves to quantify how important a given new reported decay channel is, from the point of view of the information that it adds to the already ...

Perceptual Complexity as Normalized Shannon Entropy [PDF]
EntropyComplexity is one of the most important variables in how the brain performs decision making based on esthetic values. Multiple definitions of perceptual complexity have been proposed, with one of the most fruitful being the Normalized Shannon Entropy one.

Spatial distribution of the Shannon entropy for mass spectrometry imaging [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) allows us to visualize the spatial distribution of molecular components in a sample. A large amount of mass spectrometry data comprehensively provides molecular distributions.

Shannon Entropy Loss in Mixed-Radix Conversions [PDF]
Entropy, 2021 This paper models a translation for base-2 pseudorandom number generators (PRNGs) to mixed-radix uses such as card shuffling. In particular, we explore a shuffler algorithm that relies on a sequence of uniformly distributed random inputs from a mixed ...

On Shannon entropy and its applications
Kuwait Journal of Science, 2023 A brief and intuitive introduction to Shannon entropy is presented, including some of its properties. The application of this measure is exemplified in two different contexts from what was in its genesis: biological diversity and an original study on ...

Sudoku-inspired high-Shannon-entropy alloys [PDF]
Acta Materialia, 2022 Current definition of high-entropy alloys (HEAs) is commonly based on the configurational entropy. But this definition depends only on the chemical composition of a HEA and therefore cannot distinguish the information content that is encoded in various local atomic arrangements and measurable by the Shannon entropy in information theory. Here, inspired

Perceived Complexity as Normalized, Integrated, Localized Shannon Entropy [PDF]
EntropyPerceived complexity is a key component of sensory brain function as it indicates the number of resources necessary to process incoming information. A recently proposed measure of perceived complexity defined it as normalized Shannon entropy.

Shannon Entropy in LS-Coupled Configuration Space for Ni-like Isoelectronic Sequence [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 The Shannon entropy in an LS-coupled configuration space has been calculated through a transformation from that in a jj-coupled configuration space for a Ni-like isoelectronic sequence.

From Chaos to Ordering: New Studies in the Shannon Entropy of 2D Patterns [PDF]
Entropy, 2022 Properties of the Voronoi tessellations arising from random 2D distribution points are reported. We applied an iterative procedure to the Voronoi diagrams generated by a set of points randomly placed on the plane. The procedure implied dividing the edges
