Recurrence times, waiting times and universal entropy production estimators

چکیده
The universal typical-signal estimators of entropy and cross-entropy based on the asymptotics recurrence waiting times play an important role in information theory. Building their construction, we introduce study production context nonequilibrium statistical mechanics one-sided shifts over finite alphabets.

Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy from recurrence times
Observing how long a dynamical system takes to return to some state is one of the most simple ways to model and quantify its dynamics from data series. This work proposes two formulas to estimate the KS entropy and a lower bound of it, a sort of Shannon’s entropy per unit of time, from the recurrence times of chaotic systems. One formula provides the KS entropy and is more theoretically oriente...
متن کاملAsymptotic Recurrence and Waiting times for Stationary Processes
Let X = fX n ; n 2 Zg be a discrete-valued stationary ergodic process distributed according to P and let x = of the recurrence time R n deened as the rst time that the initial n-block x n 1 = (x 1 ; x 2 ; : : : ; x n) reappears in the past of x. We identify an associated random walk, ? log P (X n 1); on the same probability space as X, and we prove a strong approximation theorem between log R n...
متن کاملRelative entropy and waiting times for continuous-time Markov processes
For discrete-time stochastic processes, there is a close connection between return/waiting times and entropy. Such a connection cannot be straightforwardly extended to the continuous-time setting. Contrarily to the discrete-time case one does need a reference measure and so the natural object is relative entropy rather than entropy. In this paper we elaborate on this in the case of continuous-t...
متن کاملFactors influencing waiting times and consultation times in general practice.
Using data collected from 85 general practitioners in Lothian, large variations were found in the time patients wait for and spend with their doctor. This study, which sets consultations into their administrative framework, examines factors which cause this variation. Consultation time was found to be affected by the total number of patients attending a particular surgery, while waiting time wa...
متن کاملPredicting joint replacement waiting times.
Currently, the median waiting time for total hip and knee replacement in Ontario is greater than 6 months. Waiting longer than 6 months is not recommended and may result in lower post-operative benefits. We developed a simulation model to estimate the proportion of patients who would receive surgery within the recommended waiting time for surgery over a 10-year period considering a wide range o...
