Model selection and assessment with incomplete data pose challenges in addition to the ones encountered with complete data. There are two main reasons for this. First, many models describe characteristics of the complete data, in spite of…

Traditional economic models typically treat private information, or signals, as generated from some underlying state. Recent work has explicated alternative models, where signals correspond to interpretations of available information. We…

The fine approach to measure information dependence is based on the total conditional complexity CT(y|x), which is defined as the minimal length of a total program that outputs y on the input x. It is known that the total conditional…

In this note, we present an information diffusion inequality derived from an elementary argument, which gives rise to a very general Fano-type inequality. The latter unifies and generalizes the distance-based Fano inequality and the…

We study the Rellich inequalities in the framework of equalities. We present equalities which imply the Rellich inequalities by dropping remainders. This provides a simple and direct understanding of the Rellich inequalities as well as the…

Bell's inequalities can be understood in three different ways depending on whether the numbers featuring in the inequalities are interpreted as classical probabilities, classical conditional probabilities, or quantum probabilities. In the…

Conditions are essential in the statements of biological literature. Without the conditions (e.g., environment, equipment) that were precisely specified, the facts (e.g., observations) in the statements may no longer be valid. One…

Entanglement witnesses such as Bell inequalities are frequently used to prove the non-classicality of a light source and its suitability for further tasks. By demonstrating Bell inequality violations using classical light in common…

Considering some parameters and by means of an inequality of Hadamard, we derive general half-discrete Hilbert-type inequalities. Then we highlight some special cases.

We present our findings in the gap between theory and practice of using conditional energy-based models (EBM) as an implicit representation for behavior-cloned policies. We also clarify several subtle, and potentially confusing, details in…

Information algebra is algebraic structure for local computation and inference. Given an initial universe set and a parameter set, we show that a soft set system over them is an information algebra. Moreover, in a soft set system, the…

We make the simple, and yet deep, observation that a regular conditional distribution (rcd) almost surely trivialises the conditioning $\sigma$-algebra if and only if there exists a "measurable selection" of regular conditional…
