A New Year—A New Outlook

A new outlook of Shannon's information measures

Abstact --Let. Xi, i = 1,. . . , n, be discrete random variables, and Xi be a set variable corresponding to Xi. Define the universal set to be U ; = IXi and let S be the U-field generated by (Xi, i = 1,. . . , n}. It is shown that Shannon’s information measures on the random variables Xi, i = 1; .,n, constitute a unique measure p* on F, which is called the I-Measure. In other words, the Shannon...

Nonstationary Nonlinearity: An Outlook for New Opportunities

In this paper, we look for new opportunities that can be exploited using some of the recent developments on the theory of nonlinear models with integrated time series. Heuristic introductions on the basic tools and asymptotics are followed by the opportunities in three different directions: in data generation, in mean and in volatility. In the direction of data generation, we investigate the no...

Preventing Hearing Loss and Restoring Hearing: A New Outlook

People with hearing loss represent one of the largest disability groups worldwide, and the prevalence of hearing loss is predicted to rise with an ageing population. Substantial progress has been made towards understanding some of the biological processes involved in the development of hearing impairment as well as therapeutic ways to prevent or mitigate the hearing loss. For example, we now ha...
