Depth perception in humans is obtained by comparing images generated by the two eyes to each other. Given the highly stochastic nature of neurons in the brain, this comparison requires maximizing the mutual information (MI) between the neuronal responses in the two eyes by distributing the...

The problem of optimising the threshold levels in multilevel threshold system subject to multiplicative Gaussian and uniform noise is considered. Similar to previous results for additive noise, we find a bifurcation phenomenon in the optimal threshold values, as the noise intensity changes. This...

We analyze how the symmetry of the wave function and the interaction between particles influence the localization–delocalization of the distribution functions, and the statistical correlation between variables representing the particles. We use the Moshinsky atom which is a model of two...

We investigate the correlations of initially separable probability distributions in a globally pure bipartite system with two degrees of freedom for classical and quantum systems. A classical version of the quantum linear mutual information is introduced and the two quantities are compared for a...

Seismicity is the product of the interaction between the different parts of the lithosphere. Here, we model each part of the Earth as a cell that is constantly communicating its state to its environment. As a neuron is stimulated and produces an output, the different parts of the lithosphere are...

The intricate interplay between the variation of the stock network structure and fluctuations of that stock market is increasingly becoming a hot topic. In this work, employing a moving window to scan through every stock price time series over a period from 2 January 2001 to 7 December 2010, we...

In this article we analyse linear correlation and non-linear dependence of traded volume, v, of the 30 constituents of Dow Jones Industrial Average at different value scales. Specifically, we have raised v to some real value α or β, which introduces a bias for small (α,β<0) or large (α,β>1) values. Our...</0)>

The main objective of analyzing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data sets is to screen the physiologically induced signals from noise or artifacts resulting either from involuntary patient motion or MRI detection techniques. One problem, that is not yet solved, is related to the...

The notion of quantum discord introduced by Ollivier and Zurek [Phys. Rev. Lett 88 (2001) 017901] (see also Henderson and Vedral [J. Phys. A 34 (2001) 6899] ) has attracted increasing attention, in recent years, as an entropic quantifier of non-classical features pertaining to the correlations...

A mathematical procedure is suggested to obtain deformed entropy formulas of type K(SK)=∑PiK(−lnPi), by requiring zero mutual K(SK)-information between a finite subsystem and a finite reservoir. The use of this method is first demonstrated on the ideal gas equation of state with finite...
