We propose a non-Gaussianity measure of multimode quantum state based on the negentropy quadrature distributions. Our satisfies desirable properties as measure, i.e., faithfulness, invariance under Gaussian unitary operations, and monotonicity channels. Furthermore, we find quantitative relation between our previously proposed measures defined via relative entropy Hilbert-Schmidt distance. This...

This paper aims to examine suitability of the marginal statistics based contrast function e.g. negentropy for the separation of convolutive speech mixtures picked up by a linear microphone array. For this study we choose our frequency domain fixed-point ICA algorithm, based on negentropy maximization of the independent components. This algorithm is based on the heuristic assumption, in accordan...

Compressive sensing theory has attracted widespread attention in recent years and sparse signal reconstruction has been widely used in signal processing and communication. This paper addresses the problem of sparse signal recovery especially with non-Gaussian noise. The main contribution of this paper is the proposal of an algorithm where the negentropy and reweighted schemes represent the core...

Kobus Marais’s monograph Translation Theory and Development Studies: A Complexity Approach carves out new territory in translation studies, namely what might be called translational development studies – but it also seeks to fuse that subdiscipline with an invigorated complexity- theoretical framework. This article promote advance project by offering correctives two areas where his own framewor...

State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems can achieve very low word error rates (WERs) of below 5% on data recorded with headsets. However, in many situations such as ASR at meetings or in the car, far field microphones on the table, walls or devices such as laptops are preferable to microphones that have to be worn close to the user’s mouths. Unfortunately, the distance betwe...

Configurational information is generated when three or more sources of variance interact. The variations not only disturb each other relationally, but by selecting upon each other, they are also positioned in a configuration. A configuration can be stabilized and/or globalized. Different stabilizations can be considered as second-order variation, and globalization as a second-order selection. T...

A homogeneous solution of a chiral substance is acquired with an overall asymmetry which is expressed by a specific rotation of a linearly polarized light. Such a solution, despite being at a complete equilibrium, stores configurational entropy in a form of negative entropy which can be nullified by mixing with a solution of the opposite enantiomer. This abundant, yet quite a specific case of i...

A new visual notation is proposed for precisely expressing constraints on object-oriented models, as an alternative to mathematical logic notation used in methods such as Syntropy and Catalysis. The notation is potentially intuitive, expressive, integrates well with existing visual notations, and has a clear and unambiguous semantics. It is reminiscent of informal diagrams used by mathematician...

Because of increasingly common damage and thefts of the transmission towers, a new function is proposed to enhance the state maintenance of transmission lines. It relies on the monitoring of the high-voltage transmission towers to ensure the reliability and safety of the power grid operation. An approach which combines Independent Component Analysis (ICA) with neural network based on Particle S...

Philosophy-of-information considerations can analyse information concepts according to four ways of thinking. A Unified Theory of Information (UTI) requires the fourth way of thinking – integration. This integration can be performed, if a complex systems view is informed by the heuristics of a historical and logical account. In particular, the terms of “difference” or “variety”, negentropy and ...
