Imagine you’re standing in front of a closed door. Behind it is a teenager’s bedroom, and your task is to rate how messy it is on a scale of 1 to 10. But here’s the twist: you can’t open the door – ...

Entropy also increases in initially ordered quantum systems until it reaches a final state of disorder. Entropy and the direction of time Equating 'entropy' with 'disorder' is not entirely correct.

ABSTRACT: It is difficult for the existing Automated External Defibrillator (AED) on-board microprocessors to accurately classify electrocardiographic signals (ECGs) mixed with Cardiopulmonary ...

Hi, nice to meet you. The equation 8 in the paper does not contain an importance weight w, but I see an importance weight w in your cross-entropy loss function for the classifier. Why do you multiply ...

Names can be both liberating and confining. When mankind gives something a name, we mark it with a label that helps us discuss our shared environment and experience. At the same time, a label can ...

Abstract: Conditional graph entropy is known to be the minimal rate for a natural functional compression problem with side information at the receiver. In this paper we show that it can be formulated ...

There's nothing quite like the feeling you get in a puzzle game when you look at the big picture and the solution to the whole stage comes to you all at once. And the clever challenges in The Entropy ...

What is the concept of entropy? Embedded-system applications that exploit entropy. How to implement entropy. What sources of entropy are available? Computers are designed to be predictable. Under the ...

I recently led a webinar on the laws of thermodynamics, which got me thinking: A business is very much a closed system, such as a universe. Therefore, if entropy is always increasing in a closed ...
