  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.

    9.5699 × 10 −24 J⋅K −1: Entropy equivalent of one bit of information, equal to k times ln(2) [1] 10 −23: 1.381 × 10 −23 J⋅K −1: Boltzmann constant, entropy equivalent of one nat of information. 10 1: 5.74 J⋅K −1: Standard entropy of 1 mole of graphite [2] 10 33: ≈ 10 35 J⋅K −1: Entropy of the Sun (given as ≈ 10 42 ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Entropy in thermodynamics and information theory - Wikipedia

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

    Common values of b are 2, Euler's number e, and 10, and the unit of entropy is shannon (or bit) for b = 2, nat for b = e, and hartley for b = 10. [ 1 ] Mathematically H may also be seen as an average information, taken over the message space, because when a certain message occurs with probability p i , the information quantity −log( p i ...

  6. 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."

  7. Crocco's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crocco's_Theorem

    Crocco's theorem is an aerodynamic theorem relating the flow velocity, vorticity, and stagnation pressure (or entropy) of a potential flow. Crocco's theorem gives the relation between the thermodynamics and fluid kinematics. The theorem was first enunciated by Alexander Friedmann for the particular case of a perfect gas and published in 1922: [1]

  8. Conditional entropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conditional_entropy

    The continuous version of discrete conditional entropy is called conditional differential (or continuous) entropy. Let X {\displaystyle X} and Y {\displaystyle Y} be a continuous random variables with a joint probability density function f ( x , y ) {\displaystyle f(x,y)} .

  9. Bethe formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethe_formula

    The interaction excites or ionizes the atoms, leading to an energy loss of the traveling particle. The non-relativistic version was found by Hans Bethe in 1930; the relativistic version (shown below) was found by him in 1932. [2] The most probable energy loss differs from the mean energy loss and is described by the Landau-Vavilov distribution. [3]
