Estimation of permutation entropy (PE) using Bayesian statistical methods is presented for systems where the ordinal pattern sampling follows an independent, multinomial distribution. It is demonstrated that the PE posterior distribution is…
Existing software-based energy measurements of NLP models are not accurate because they do not consider the complex interactions between energy consumption and model execution. We present IrEne, an interpretable and extensible energy…

Quantifying the information content in a neural network model is essentially estimating the model's Kolmogorov complexity. Recent success of prequential coding on neural networks points to a promising path of deriving an efficient…
Topological feedback entropy (TFE) was introduced in 2004 to measure the intrinsic rate at which a continuous, fully observed, deterministic control system generates information for controlled set-invariance. In this paper, we generalise…
Entropy measures are effective features for time series classification problems. Traditional entropy measures, such as Shannon entropy, use probability distribution function. However, for the effective separation of time series, new entropy…
