Applications of Information Theory to Epidemiology

Applications of subordination theory to starlike functions

Let $p$ be an analytic function defined on the open unit disc $mathbb{D}$ with $p(0)=1.$ The conditions on $alpha$ and $beta$ are derived for $p(z)$ to be subordinate to $1+4z/3+2z^{2}/3=:varphi_{C}(z)$ when $(1-alpha)p(z)+alpha p^{2}(z)+beta zp'(z)/p(z)$ is subordinate to $e^{z}$. Similar problems were investigated for $p(z)$ to lie in a region bounded by lemniscate of Bernoulli $|w^{2}-1|=1$ ...

Applications of information theory to biology

Information theory offers a number of fertile applications to biology. These applications range from statistical inference to foundational issues. There are a number of statistical analysis tools that can be considered information theoretical techniques. Such techniques have been the topic of PSB session tracks in 1998 and 1999. The two main tools are algorithmic complexity (including both MML ...

Optical Elastography: From Theory to Clinical Applications

Applications of Information Theory to Computer Graphics

We present in this talk several applications of Information Theory to Computer Graphics, based on the use of the measures of entropy and mutual information, f-divergences and generalized entropies. Application areas presented are hierarchical radiosity, adaptive pixel supersampling, selection of best view-points, object and scene exploration, mesh saliency, mesh simplification and object recogn...
