Shifting entropy elsewhere

چکیده

Ultracold atoms are still too hot. This may seem a ridiculous claim—after all, the low-temperature exploits of the purveyors of quantum gases are notorious. Laser cooling can flash-freeze atoms to temperatures in the microand nanokelvin range. In the mid 1990s, researchers followed this with evaporative cooling of atoms out of shallow traps and made the first gaseous Bose-Einstein condensates appear at temperatures of 20 nK[1]. With slow and careful cooling by decompression, quantum gases have plummeted to as low as 500 pK[2].

Reversible Watermarking based on Entropy Masking with Histogram Shifting

In this paper an improved method for reversible watermarking is proposed. This scheme is the combination of entropy masking and histogram. One first contribution is entropy masking which has three techniques. From three of them dwt is used for the watermarking. Entropy masking is also a human visual system’s characteristic, which rarely has been addressed in visual models. The second contributi...

Asymmetric and Sample Size Sensitive Entropy Measures for Supervised Learning

Many algorithms of machine learning use an entropy measure as optimization criterion. Among the widely used entropy measures, Shannon’s is one of the most popular. In some real world applications, the use of such entropy measures without precautions, could lead to inconsistent results. Indeed, the measures of entropy are built upon some assumptions which are not fulfilled in many real cases. Fo...

Positive Entropy Equilibrium States

For transitive shifts of finite type, and more generally for shifts with specification, it is well-known that every equilibrium state for a Hölder continuous potential has positive entropy as long as the shift has positive topological entropy. We give a non-uniform specification condition under which this property continues to hold, and demonstrate that it does not necessarily hold for other no...

Applications of the Fuzzy Sumudu Transform for the Solution of First Order Fuzzy Differential Equations

In this paper, we study the classical Sumudu transform in fuzzy environment, referred to as the fuzzy Sumudu transform (FST). We also propose some results on the properties of the FST, such as linearity, preserving, fuzzy derivative, shifting and convolution theorem. In order to show the capability of the FST, we provide a detailed procedure to solve fuzzy differential equations (FDEs). A numer...

Maxwell's Demon and the Entropy Cost of Information

We present an analysis of Szilard's one-molecule Maxwell's demon, including a detailed entropy accounting, that suggests a general theory of the entropy cost of information. It is shown that the entropy of the demon increases during the expansion step, due to the decoupling of the molecule from the measurement information. It is also shown that there is an entropy symmetry between the measureme...
