Developing models and metrics that can address resilience against disruptions is vital to ensure power grid reliability and that adequate recovery and adaptation mechanisms are in place. In this paper, we propose a novel disruption mapping…
We lay a comprehensive foundation for the study of redundant information storage in decoherence processes. Redundancy has been proposed as a prerequisite for objectivity, the defining property of classical objects. We consider two ensembles…
The interactions between three or more random variables are often nontrivial, poorly understood, and yet, are paramount for future advances in fields such as network information theory, neuroscience, genetics and many others. In this work,…
Quantifying modality contributions in multimodal models remains a challenge, as existing approaches conflate the notion of contribution itself. Prior work relies on accuracy-based approaches, interpreting performance drops after removing a…
The apparent dichotomy between information-processing and dynamical approaches to complexity science forces researchers to choose between two diverging sets of tools and explanations, creating conflict and often hindering scientific…

IT infrastructure is a crucial part in most of today's business operations. High availability and reliability, and short response times to outages are essential. Thus a high amount of tool support and automation in risk management is…
Deployed reinforcement learning systems lack a principled runtime reliability theory. We close this gap by introducing Bipredictability, P, a closed form information theoretic metric that quantifies how efficiently a closed loop interaction…
A method for testing nonlinearity in time series is described based on information-theoretic functionals -- redundancies, linear and nonlinear forms of which allow either qualitative, or, after incorporating the surrogate data technique,…
This paper considers the problem of guessing the realization of a finite alphabet source when some side information is provided. The only knowledge the guesser has about the source and the correlated side information is that the joint…
This paper examines the properties of output-redundant systems, that is, systems possessing a larger number of outputs than inputs, through the lenses of the geometric approach of Wonham et al. We begin by formulating a simple output…

Edge computing operates between the cloud and end users and strives to provide low-latency computing services for simultaneous users. Redundant use of multiple edge nodes can reduce latency, as edge systems often operate in uncertain…
We define Persistent Mutual Information (PMI) as the Mutual (Shannon) Information between the past history of a system and its evolution significantly later in the future. This quantifies how much past observations enable long term…
We consider a multipoint-to-point network in which sensors periodically send measurements to a gateway. The system uses Long Range (LoRa) communications in a frequency band with duty-cycle limits. Our aim is to enhance the reliability of…
