this paper assumes the cell formation problem as a distributed decision network. it proposes an approach based on application and extension of information theory concepts, in order to analyze informational complexity in an agent- based system, due to interdependence between agents. based on this approach, new quantitative concepts and definitions are proposed in order to measure the amount of t...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of quantile-based generalized cumulative residual entropy of order $(alpha,beta)$ for residual and past lifetimes and study their properties. Further we study the proposed information measure for series and parallel system when random variable are untruncated or truncated in nature and some characterization results are presented. At the end, we study gene...

Abstract Using the wave-packet approach to neutrino oscillations, we analyze quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relations and show that non-local advantage of quantum coherence are anti-correlated. Furthermore, explore hierarchy among three different definitions NAQC, those based on $$l_{1}$$ l <mml:...

In this paper, we study the effect of detuning parameters and driven external classical field on a quantum system consisting ?-configuration four-level atom inside quantized cavity field. Under some canonical conditional dressed states, exact solution Schrödinger equation is obtained. The occupation atomic levels statistical population inversion studied. Our results show that parameter dissolve...

Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) is one of the most famous indices, which is used for estimating the productivity change of a Decision Making Unit (DMU) during the time. Virtually any empirical study that uses MPI, reports average of the productivity indices they estimate to represent the overall tendency in productivity changes. In such a case, productivity indices of a DMU are considered wi...

In recent years, the capabilities of knowledge-based systems to communicate with their users have evolved from simple interactions to complex dialogues. With this evolution comes a need to understand what makes a good dialogue. In this paper, we are concerned with dialogue coherence. We review the notion of focus, which partly explains this property, and its use for user-system communication. F...

If we reduce coherence in a given quantum system, the result is an increase in entropy. Does this necessarily convert this quantum system into a classical system? The answer to this question is No. The decrease of coherence means more uncertainty. This does not seem to make the system closer to classical system where there are no uncertainties. We examine the problem using two coupled harmonic ...

Correlations between forest biomass and full polarimetric parameters, including  0 , four-component decomposition, eigenvalue decomposition (entropy/alpha/anisotropy), and coherence values between polarization were analyzed. Polarimetric and interferometric airborne synthetic aperture radar with L-band type-2 (Pi-SAR-L2) data were examined to identify prospective parameters for estimating the ...
