Towards A New Information Theory
The modern information theory is established by Claude Shannon around the middle of the past century. The key challenges at the time were how to ensure a reliable transmission of signals. A prototype example is enough to illustrate the point. A signal represented by a binary sequence is to be transmitted over a noisy channel, the channel may randomly flip the bit with a given error rate. At the...
متن کاملTowards a Wavelet Information Theory
Abstract—A new interpretation for the wavelet analysis is reported, which can is viewed as an information processing technique. It was recently proposed that every basic wavelet could be associated with a proper probability density, allowing defining the entropy of a wavelet. Introducing now the concept of wavelet mutual information between a signal and an analysing wavelet fulfils the foundati...
متن کاملEmergent information. Towards a unified information theory.
This paper proposes the restoration of information theory by means of a philosophy of evolutionary systems. What this philosophy implies for the conception of information may be called a multi-stage model, comprising both the history and the ordering of information processing by real-world systems. Such a unifying information concept may assist suitable research in the coming field of informati...
متن کاملIntrinsic Value: Towards A Pragmatic Theory
Intrinsic value is a concept central to the environmentalist movement. Whether one believes that natural objects have intrinsic value is supposed to determine whether one takes a ecocentric or homocentric approach to environmentalism, whether we practice deep or (merely) shallow ecology. Yet this concept is also a center of controversy and confusion. Just what does it mean for something to ha...
متن کاملTowards a Social , Ethical Theory of Information
We seek to take some initial steps towards a theory of information that is adequate for understanding and designing systems that process information, i.e., information systems in a broad sense. Formal representations of information are needed in designing, using and maintaining such systems, especially when they are computer based. However, it is also necessary to take account of social context...
