The research of geometric means of matrices is attracting more and more attention from scholars since it has very important applications in mathematics and physics, especially in the von Neuman entropy involving the quantum physics and statistical thermal physical. There are many achievements on the entropy, among which the entropy uncertainty relation, the generalization of the Heisenberg unce...

In information theory, entropies make up of the basis for distance and divergence measures among various probability densities. In this paper we propose a novel metric to detect DDoS attacks in networks by using the function of order α of the generalized (Rényi) entropy to distinguish DDoS attacks traffic from legitimate network traffic effectively. Our proposed approach can not only detect DDo...

where H(F)σ ≡ −Tr{σF log σF} is the von Neumann entropy of a state σF on system F and we unambiguously let ρC ≡ TrAB{ρABC} denote the reduced density operator on system C, for example. The CQMI captures the correlations present between Alice and Bob from the perspective of Charlie in the independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) resource limit, where an asymptotically large number of cop...

We discuss a basic thermodynamic properties of systems with multifractal structure. This is possible by extending the notion of Gibbs–Shannon’s entropy into more general framework Rényi’s information entropy. We show a connection of Rényi’s parameter q with the multifractal singularity spectrum f (α) and clarify a relationship with the Tsallis–Havrda–Charvat entropy. Finally, we generalize Hage...

In this paper the notion of robust entropy and subsequently, robust entropy rate for a family of discrete time uncertain sources is introduced. When the uncertainty is described by a relative entropy constraint between the set of uncertain source densities and a given nominal source density, the solution to this robust notion of information is presented and its connection with other notions of ...

We present a computational algorithm for isotrigon texture discrimination. The aim of this method consists in discriminating isotrigon textures against a binary random background. The extension of the method to the problem of multitexture discrimination is considered as well. The method relies on the fact that the information content of time or space-frequency representations of signals, includ...

We consider the problem of approximating the empirical Shannon entropy of a highfrequency data stream under the relaxed strict-turnstile model, when space limitations make exact computation infeasible. An equivalent measure of entropy is the Rényi entropy that depends on a constant α. This quantity can be estimated efficiently and unbiasedly from a low-dimensional synopsis called an α-stable da...
