Shannon entropy of brain functional complex networks under the influence of the psychedelic Ayahuasca [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
The entropic brain hypothesis holds that the key facts concerning psychedelics are partially explained in terms of increased entropy of the brain’s functional connectivity.

Learn your entropy from informative data: An axiom ensuring the consistent identification of generalized entropies

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
Shannon entropy, a cornerstone of information theory, statistical physics, and inference methods, is uniquely identified by the Shannon-Khinchin or Shore-Johnson axioms.

Is the Voronoi Entropy a True Entropy? Comments on “Entropy, Shannon’s Measure of Information and Boltzmann’s H-Theorem”, Entropy 2017, 19, 48

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
The goal of this comment note is to express our considerations about the recent paper by A. Ben Naim (Entropy 2017, 19, 48). We strongly support the distinguishing between the Shannon measure of information and the thermodynamic entropy, suggested in the

Advancing Shannon Entropy for Measuring Diversity in Systems

open access: yesComplex, 2017
From economic inequality and species diversity to power laws and the analysis of multiple trends and trajectories, diversity within systems is a major issue for science. Part of the challenge is measuring it.

Modeling the Circular Economy Processes at the EU Level Using an Evaluation Algorithm Based on Shannon Entropy

open access: yesProcesses, 2018
In this paper we propose a methodology to study circular economy processes based on mathematical modelling. In open-ended systems, waste could be converted back to recycling, transforming the economy from linear to circular.

Fuzzy Shannon Entropy: A Hybrid GIS-Based Landslide Susceptibility Mapping Method

open access: yesEntropy, 2016
Assessing Landslide Susceptibility Mapping (LSM) contributes to reducing the risk of living with landslides. Handling the vagueness associated with LSM is a challenging task. Here we show the application of hybrid GIS-based LSM.

An Expression for Velocity Lag in Sediment-Laden Open-Channel Flows Based on Tsallis Entropy Together with the Principle of Maximum Entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
In the context of river dynamics, some experimental results have shown that particle velocity is different from fluid velocity along the stream-wise direction for uniform sediment-laden open-channel flows; this velocity difference has been termed ...
