The entropy generation during hydromagnetic boundary layer flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid due to radial stretching sheet with Newtonian heating in the presence of a transverse magnetic field and the thermal radiation has been analyzed. The governing equations are then solved numerically by using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method with shooting technique. The eff...

As additivity is a characteristic property of the classical information measure, Shannon entropy, pseudo-additivity of the form x+qy = x+y+(1−q)xy is a characteristic property of Tsallis entropy. Rényi in [1] generalized Shannon entropy by means of Kolmogorov-Nagumo averages, by imposing additivity as a constraint. In this paper we show that there exists no generalization for Tsallis entropy, b...

There are numerous characterizations of Shannon entropy and Tsallis entropy as measures of information obeying certain properties. Using work by Faddeev and Furuichi, we derive a very simple characterization. Instead of focusing on the entropy of a probability measure on a finite set, this characterization focuses on the “information loss”, or change in entropy, associated with a measure-preser...

This memo contains proofs that the Shannon entropy is the limiting case of both the Renyi entropy and the Tsallis entropy, or information. These results are also confirmed experimentally. We conclude with some general observations on the utility of entropy measures. A brief summary of the origins of the concept of physical entropy are provided in an appendix.

using satellite imagery for the study of earth's resources is attended by manyresearchers. in fact, the various phenomena have different spectral response inelectromagnetic radiation. one major application of satellite data is the classification ofland cover. in recent years, a number of classification algorithms have been developed forclassification of remote sensing data. one of the most nota...

market volatility remains one of the most important research fields in agricultural economics.interestingly, price transmission mechanism seems to be symmetric in sectors that are likely to be of high political power.this paper analyzes the price transmission effects from international markets to domestic markets for corn in iran. for this purpose, we estimate the elasticity of substitution bet...
