Transfer entropy (21 Ergebnisse)

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Thermodynamic for Beginners opens the door to one of the most powerful ideas in science: understanding how energy moves, transforms, and shapes the world around us. From the warmth of sunlight on your skin to the engines that power cities and industries, thermodynamics quietly governs countless processes in everyday life. Yet for many people, the subject has long seemed intimidating-filled with complex equations and abstract theories. This book changes that. Written with clarity and approachability in mind, this beginner-friendly guide breaks down the core principles of thermodynamics into clear, engaging explanations that anyone can understand. Instead of overwhelming readers with technical language, it reveals the logic behind energy, heat, temperature, and entropy through vivid examples drawn from real life. You will discover why hot objects cool down, how engines convert fuel into motion, why refrigerators can keep food cold, and how the laws of thermodynamics place limits on every machine ever built. As the journey unfolds, the book gradually reveals the elegant framework behind these phenomena. The four laws of thermodynamics come into focus as powerful rules that govern everything from microscopic molecular motion to massive energy systems that power our world. Concepts that once seemed abstract-such as entropy and energy conservation-become intuitive tools for understanding how nature works. But this book goes beyond theory. It connects thermodynamics to the technologies that shape modern life: engines, power plants, cooling systems, and renewable energy technologies that will define the future. By the end, readers will see energy differently-not as an invisible force hidden behind machines, but as a dynamic flow that drives the natural world and human innovation alike. Whether you are a student, a curious learner, or simply someone fascinated by how the universe works, Thermodynamic for Beginners offers a clear and inspiring path into the science of energy-revealing a world where every motion, every machine, and every natural process tells the story of energy in action. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Statistical relationships among the variables of a complex system reveal a lot about its physical behavior. Therefore, identification of the relevant variables and characterization of their interactions are crucial for a better understanding of a complex system. Linear methods, such as correlation, are widely used to identify these relationships. However, information-theoretic quantities, such as mutual information and transfer entropy, have been proven to be superior in the case of nonlinear dependencies. Mutual information quantifies the amount of information obtained about one random variable through the other random variable, and it is symmetric. As an asymmetrical measure, transfer entropy quantifies the amount of directed (time-asymmetric) transfer of information between random processes and, thus, it is related to concepts, such as the Granger causality. This Special Issue includes 16 papers elucidating the state of the art of data-based transfer entropy estimation techniques and applications, in areas such as finance, biomedicine, fluid dynamics and cellular automata. Analytical derivations in special cases, improvements on the estimation methods and comparisons between certain techniques are some of the other contributions of this Special Issue. The diversity of approaches and applications makes this book unique as a single source of invaluable contributions from experts in the field. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Transport and diffusion processes are central in numerous scientific and technical applications. Prominent examples are the temperature distribution in continuous media, the flow of liquids or gases, the dynamics of reaction-diffusion systems, or the concentration distributions in mixtures. The theoretical and numerical description of these systems is based on partial differential equations. The theory of non-equilibrium thermodynamics provides a frame to derive these equations from basic conservation laws and first principles. The first part of the textbook discusses the concept of equilibrium thermodynamics and its generalization to systems in local equilibrium. Thermodynamic fluxes are defined and caused by generalized forces. Finally, linear relations, the Onsager relations, between fluxes and forces allow for a closed description. In this way, conservation equations for mass (continuity), momentum (Euler or Navier-Stokes), and energy (temperature) are derived and solved analytically or numerically for several examples. The second part is based on the kinetic gas theory describing a classical many particle system. At the example of a perfect gas the conservation equations derived phenomenologically in the first part are thereby put on statistical grounds. The textbook addresses advanced Bachelor or Master students of physics, mechanical engineering and applied mathematics.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book considers a relatively new metric in complex systems, transfer entropy, derived from a series of measurements, usually a time series. After a qualitative introduction and a chapter that explains the key ideas from statistics required to understand the text, the authors then present information theory and transfer entropy in depth. A key feature of the approach is the authors' work to show the relationship between information flow and complexity. The later chapters demonstrate information transfer in canonical systems, and applications, for example in neuroscience and in finance.The book will be of value to advanced undergraduate and graduate students and researchers in the areas of computer science, neuroscience, physics, and engineering.…
