  2. Information processing theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_processing_theory

    Information processing theory is the approach to the study of cognitive development evolved out of the American experimental tradition in psychology. Developmental psychologists who adopt the information processing perspective account for mental development in terms of maturational changes in basic components of a child's mind. The theory is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claude_Shannon

    According to Neil Sloane, an AT&T Fellow who co-edited Shannon's large collection of papers in 1993, the perspective introduced by Shannon's communication theory (now called "information theory") is the foundation of the digital revolution, and every device containing a microprocessor or microcontroller is a conceptual descendant of Shannon's ...

    the mutual information, and the channel capacity of a noisy channel, including the promise of perfect loss-free communication given by the noisy-channel coding theorem; the practical result of the Shannon–Hartley law for the channel capacity of a Gaussian channel; and of course; the bit - a new way of seeing the most fundamental unit of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norbert_Wiener

    Wiener's early work on information theory and signal processing was limited to analog signals, and was largely forgotten with the development of the digital theory. [ 34 ] Wiener is one of the key originators of cybernetics , a formalization of the notion of feedback , with many implications for engineering , systems control , computer science ...

MacKay shows the connection between information theory, inference and machine learning in his book. 2006 – JarosÅ‚aw Duda introduces first Asymmetric numeral systems entropy coding: since 2014 popular replacement of Huffman and arithmetic coding in compressors like Facebook Zstandard, Apple LZFSE, CRAM or JPEG XL

  7. Process theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_theory

    A process theory is a system of ideas that explains how an entity changes and develops. [1] Process theories are often contrasted with variance theories, that is, systems of ideas that explain the variance in a dependent variable based on one or more independent variables. While process theories focus on how something happens, variance theories ...

    In this context, either an information-theoretical measure, such as functional clusters (Gerald Edelman and Giulio Tononi's functional clustering model and dynamic core hypothesis (DCH) [47]) or effective information (Tononi's integrated information theory (IIT) of consciousness [48] [49] [50]), is defined (on the basis of a reentrant process ...
