For a certain moment, the information volume represented in a probability space can be accurately measured by Shannon entropy. But in real life, the results of things usually change over time, and the prediction of the information volume contained in the future is still an open question. Deng entropy proposed by Deng in recent years is widely applied on measuring the uncertainty, but its physical explanation is controversial. In this paper, we give Deng entropy a new explanation based on the fractal idea, and proposed its generalization called time fractal-based (TFB) entropy. The TFB entropy is recognized as predicting the uncertainty over a period of time by splitting times, and its maximum value, called higher order information volume of mass function (HOIVMF), can express more uncertain information than all of existing methods.

We explore a well-known integral representation of the logarithmic function, and demonstrate its usefulness in obtaining compact, easily-computable exact formulas for quantities that involve expectations and higher moments of the logarithm of a posit ive random variable (or the logarithm of a sum of positive random variables). The integral representation of the logarithm is proved useful in a variety of information-theoretic applications, including universal lossless data compression, entropy and differential entropy evaluations, and the calculation of the ergodic capacity of the single-input, multiple-output (SIMO) Gaussian channel with random parameters (known to both transmitter and receiver). This integral representation and its variants are anticipated to serve as a useful tool in additional applications, as a rigorous alternative to the popular (but non-rigorous) replica method (at least in some situations).
While Kolmogorov complexity is the accepted absolute measure of information content in an individual finite object, a similarly absolute notion is needed for the information distance between two individual objects, for example, two pictures. We give several natural definitions of a universal information metric, based on length of shortest programs for either ordinary computations or reversible (dissipationless) computations. It turns out that these definitions are equivalent up to an additive logarithmic term. We show that the information distance is a universal cognitive similarity distance. We investigate the maximal correlation of the shortest programs involved, the maximal uncorrelation of programs (a generalization of the Slepian-Wolf theorem of classical information theory), and the density properties of the discrete metric spaces induced by the information distances. A related distance measures the amount of nonreversibility of a computation. Using the physical theory of reversible computation, we give an appropriate (universal, anti-symmetric, and transitive) measure of the thermodynamic work required to transform one object in another object by the most efficient process. Information distance between individual objects is needed in pattern recognition where one wants to express effective notions of pattern similarity or cognitive similarity between individual objects and in thermodynamics of computation where one wants to analyse the energy dissipation of a computation from a particular input to a particular output.
Given a probability measure $mu$ over ${mathbb R}^n$, it is often useful to approximate it by the convex combination of a small number of probability measures, such that each component is close to a product measure. Recently, Ronen Eldan used a stoch astic localization argument to prove a general decomposition result of this type. In Eldans theorem, the `number of components is characterized by the entropy of the mixture, and `closeness to product is characterized by the covariance matrix of each component. We present an elementary proof of Eldans theorem which makes use of an information theory (or estimation theory) interpretation. The proof is analogous to the one of an earlier decomposition result known as the `pinning lemma.
The objective of this paper is to further investigate various applications of information Nonanticipative Rate Distortion Function (NRDF) by discussing two working examples, the Binary Symmetric Markov Source with parameter $p$ (BSMS($p$)) with Hammi ng distance distortion, and the multidimensional partially observed Gaussian-Markov source. For the BSMS($p$), we give the solution to the NRDF, and we use it to compute the Rate Loss (RL) of causal codes with respect to noncausal codes. For the multidimensional Gaussian-Markov source, we give the solution to the NRDF, we show its operational meaning via joint source-channel matching over a vector of parallel Gaussian channels, and we compute the RL of causal and zero-delay codes with respect to noncausal codes.
A finite form of de Finettis representation theorem is established using elementary information-theoretic tools: The distribution of the first $k$ random variables in an exchangeable binary vector of length $ngeq k$ is close to a mixture of product d istributions. Closeness is measured in terms of the relative entropy and an explicit bound is provided.
