Entropy and cortical activity: information theory and PET findings.
Functional segregation requires convergence and divergence of neuroanatomical connections. Furthermore, the nature of functional segregation suggests that (1) signals in convergent afferents are correlated and (2) signals in divergent efferents are uncorrelated. The aim of this article is to show that this arrangement can be predicted mathematically, using information theory and an idealized mo...
متن کاملInformation Theory 4.1 Entropy and Mutual Information
Neural encoding and decoding focus on the question: " What does the response of a neuron tell us about a stimulus ". In this chapter we consider a related but different question: " How much does the neural response tell us about a stimulus ". The techniques of information theory allow us to answer this question in a quantitative manner. Furthermore, we can use them to ask what forms of neural r...

evaluation criteria for different versions of the same database the concept of information, during its development, is connected to the concept of entropy created by the 19th century termodynamics scholars. information means, in this view point, order or negentropy. on the other hand, entropy is connected to the concepts as chaos and noise, which cause, in turn, disorder. in the present paper, ...

Entropy (information theory)
In information theory, systems are modeled by a transmitter, channel, and receiver. The transmitter produces messages that are sent through the channel. The channel modifies the message in some way. The receiver attempts to infer which message was sent. In this context, entropy (more specifically, Shannon entropy) is the expected value (average) of the information contained in each message. 'Me...
