Generally, information entropy is the average amount of information conveyed by an event, when considering all possible outcomes. The concept of information entropy was introduced by Claude Shannon in his 1948 paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication", and is also referred to as Shannon entropy.

13. Juli 2020 · A Gentle Introduction to Information Entropy. Photo by Cristiano Medeiros Dalbem, some rights reserved. Overview. This tutorial is divided into three parts; they are: What Is Information Theory? Calculate the Information for an Event. Calculate the Entropy for a Random Variable. What Is Information Theory?
In essence, the "information content" can be viewed as how much useful information the message actually contains. The entropy, in this context, is the expected number of bits of information contained in each message, taken over all possibilities for the transmitted message.
This book is an updated version of the information theory classic, first published in 1990. About one-third of the book is devoted to Shannon source and channel coding theorems; the remainder addresses sources, channels, and codes and on information and distortion measures and their properties.
The notion of entropy, which is fundamental to the whole topic of this book, is introduced here. We also present the main questions of information theory, data compression and error correction, and state Shannon’s theorems. 1.1 Random variables The main object of this book will be the behavior of large sets of discrete random variables.
20. Nov. 2021 · Information theory studies sequences of letters or symbols from a finite alphabet. It presumes that a source produces these letters with a given probability distribution and then studies how information is degraded when storing, processing, or transmitting data.

Information theory (in particular, the maximum information entropy formalism) provides a way to deal with such complexity. It has been applied to numerous problems, within and across many disciplines, over the last few decades.
15. Sept. 2009 · Information Processing and Thermodynamic Entropy. First published Tue Sep 15, 2009. Are principles of information processing necessary to demonstrate the consistency of statistical mechanics? Does the physical implementation of a computational operation have a fundamental thermodynamic cost, purely by virtue of its logical properties?
The following lecture notes were written for 6.441 by Professors Yury Polyanskiy of MIT and Yihong Wu of University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. A complete copy of the notes are available for download (PDF - 7.6MB). This section provides the lecture notes used for the course.
7. Apr. 2019 · Entropy is defined as ‘lack of order and predictability’, which seems like an apt description of the difference between the two scenarios. When is information useful? Information is only useful when it can be stored and/or communicated. We have all learned this lesson the hard way when we have forgotten to save a document we were ...
Die Informationstheorie ist eine mathematische Theorie aus dem Bereich der Wahrscheinlichkeitstheorie und Statistik, die auf den US-amerikanischen Mathematiker Claude Shannon zurückgeht. Sie beschäftigt sich mit Begriffen wie Information und Entropie, der Informationsübertragung, Datenkompression und Kodierung sowie verwandten Themen.
Shannon’s discovery of the fundamental laws of data compression and transmission marks the birth of Information Theory. In this note, we first discuss how to formulate the main fundamental quantities in In-formation Theory: information, Shannon entropy and channel capacity.
12. Nov. 2016 · 1 Introduction. The term entropy was first used by R. Clausius in 1865, in the setting of his research on heat. The underlying concept would play a crucial role in the development of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics with the work of J.W. Gibbs and L. Boltzmann at the end of the nineteenth century.
30. Mai 2018 · Edward Witten. This article consists of a very short introduction to classical and quantum information theory. Basic properties of the classical Shannon entropy and the quantum von Neumann entropy are described, along with related concepts such as classical and quantum relative entropy, conditional entropy, and mutual information.
17. Feb. 2021 · New directions for using information theory measures are presented in two papers which consider the relation between entropy and other measures of uncertainty developed in fuzzy logic and apply new concepts for the analysis of industrial engineering problems.
Entropy in thermodynamics and information theory. The mathematical expressions for thermodynamic entropy in the statistical thermodynamics formulation established by Ludwig Boltzmann and J. Willard Gibbs in the 1870s are similar to the information entropy by Claude Shannon and Ralph Hartley, developed in the 1940s.

Vor 6 Tagen · In this paper, we explore the concept of pseudo Rényi entropy within the context of quantum field theories (QFTs). The transition matrix is constructed by applying operators situated in different regions to the vacuum state. Specifically, when the operators are positioned in the left and right Rindler wedges respectively, we discover that the logarithmic term of the pseudo Rényi entropy is ...
