چکیده

For any stationary Zd Gibbs measure that satisfies strong spatial mixing, we obtain sequences of upper and lower approximations that converge to its entropy. In the case d = 2, these approximations are efficient in the sense that they are accurate to within ε and can be computed in time polynomial in 1/ε.

ADK Entropy and ADK Entropy Rate in Irreducible- Aperiodic Markov Chain and Gaussian Processes

In this paper, the two parameter ADK entropy, as a generalized of Re'nyi entropy, is considered and some properties of it, are investigated. We will see that the ADK entropy for continuous random variables is invariant under a location and is not invariant under a scale transformation of the random variable. Furthermore, the joint ADK entropy, conditional ADK entropy, and chain rule of this ent...

Relative Entropy Rate between a Markov Chain and Its Corresponding Hidden Markov Chain

 In this paper we study the relative entropy rate between a homogeneous Markov chain and a hidden Markov chain defined by observing the output of a discrete stochastic channel whose input is the finite state space homogeneous stationary Markov chain. For this purpose, we obtain the relative entropy between two finite subsequences of above mentioned chains with the help of the definition of...

On Entropy and Lyapunov Exponents for Finite-State Channels

The Finite-State Markov Channel (FSMC) is a time-varying channel having states that are characterized by a finite-state Markov chain. These channels have infinite memory, which complicates their capacity analysis. We develop a new method to characterize the capacity of these channels based on Lyapunov exponents. Specifically, we show that the input, output, and conditional entropies for this ch...

Lumpings of Markov Chains, Entropy Rate Preservation, and Higher-Order Lumpability

A lumping of a Markov chain is a coordinate-wise projection of the chain. We characterise the entropy rate preservation of a lumping of an aperiodic and irreducible Markov chain on a finite state space by the random growth rate of the cardinality of the realisable preimage of a finite-length trajectory of the lumped chain and by the information needed to reconstruct original trajectories from t...
