  2. Entropy (information theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(information_theory)

    The first 128 symbols of the Fibonacci sequence has an entropy of approximately 7 bits/symbol, but the sequence can be expressed using a formula [F(n) = F(n−1) + F(n−2) for n = 3, 4, 5, ..., F(1) =1, F(2) = 1] and this formula has a much lower entropy and applies to any length of the Fibonacci sequence.

  3. Clausius–Duhem inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausius–Duhem_inequality

    The Clausius–Duhem inequality can be expressed in integral form as () + .In this equation is the time, represents a body and the integration is over the volume of the body, represents the surface of the body, is the mass density of the body, is the specific entropy (entropy per unit mass), is the normal velocity of , is the velocity of particles inside , is the unit normal to the surface, is ...

  5. Cross-entropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-entropy

    This is also known as the log loss (or logarithmic loss [4] or logistic loss); [5] the terms "log loss" and "cross-entropy loss" are used interchangeably. [ 6 ] More specifically, consider a binary regression model which can be used to classify observations into two possible classes (often simply labelled 0 {\displaystyle 0} and 1 ...

  6. Black hole thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_thermodynamics

    In physics, black hole thermodynamics [1] is the area of study that seeks to reconcile the laws of thermodynamics with the existence of black hole event horizons.As the study of the statistical mechanics of black-body radiation led to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics, the effort to understand the statistical mechanics of black holes has had a deep impact upon the ...

  7. Entropy in thermodynamics and information theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_in_thermodynamics...

    Despite the foregoing, there is a difference between the two quantities. The information entropy Η can be calculated for any probability distribution (if the "message" is taken to be that the event i which had probability p i occurred, out of the space of the events possible), while the thermodynamic entropy S refers to thermodynamic probabilities p i specifically.

  8. Entropy (order and disorder) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(order_and_disorder)

    The relationship between entropy, order, and disorder in the Boltzmann equation is so clear among physicists that according to the views of thermodynamic ecologists Sven Jorgensen and Yuri Svirezhev, "it is obvious that entropy is a measure of order or, most likely, disorder in the system."

  9. Ellingham diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellingham_diagram

    In the temperature ranges commonly used, the metal and the oxide are in a condensed state (solid or liquid), and oxygen is a gas with a much larger molar entropy. For the oxidation of each metal, the dominant contribution to the entropy change (ΔS) is the removal of 1 ⁄ 2 mol O 2, so that ΔS is negative and roughly equal for all metals.
