Quantifying uncertainty in climate change science through empirical information theory.
Quantifying the uncertainty for the present climate and the predictions of climate change in the suite of imperfect Atmosphere Ocean Science (AOS) computer models is a central issue in climate change science. Here, a systematic approach to these issues with firm mathematical underpinning is developed through empirical information theory. An information metric to quantify AOS model errors in the...
متن کاملUncertainty in macroeconomic policy-making: art or science?
Uncertainty is pervasive in economic policy-making. Modern economies share similarities with other complex systems in their unpredictability. But economic systems also differ from those in the natural sciences because outcomes are affected by the state of beliefs of the systems' participants. The dynamics of beliefs and how they interact with economic outcomes can be rich and unpredictable. Thi...
متن کاملThe General Uncertainty Relation for Real Signals in Communication Theory
It has often been pointed out that Heisenberg's uncertainty relation has an important analogue in communication theory. Here the complementary quantities are the duration of a pulse and the width of its spectrum. Both are defined with the aid of the variances of the squares of the absolute values of the time and spectral functions, respectively, and these functions are connected by a Fourier tr...
متن کاملReliable Communication Under Channel Uncertainty - Information Theory, IEEE Transactions on
In many communication situations, the transmitter and the receiver must be designed without a complete knowledge of the probability law governing the channel over which transmission takes place. Various models for such channels and their corresponding capacities are surveyed. Special emphasis is placed on the encoders and decoders which enable reliable communication over these channels.
متن کاملThe uncertainty of science and the science of uncertainty.
H alfway through Roberto Bolaño's chef d'oeuvre 2666: A Novel (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2004), one character declares, " If you know, you know, if you do not know, you learn. " In that book, 4 academics, a journalist, and several policemen search for the bizarre truth behind a horrific series of murders. Of course, like in many of Bolano's books, the ending remains open and the truth elusive,...
