We propose an effective exponential model of delay discounting considering fluctuation in impulsivity. This model is seen to be dual to the two-parameter Tsallis model of delay discounting proposed by Takahashi in 2007. We demonstrate that…
We describe a simple and accurate framework for modeling the statistical behavior of both fully developed turbulence and short-term dynamics of financial markets based on the formalism of Tsallis' generalized non-extensive thermostatistics.…
Power law scaling is observed in many physical, biological and socio-economical complex systems and is now considered as an important property of these systems. In general, power law exists in the central part of the distribution. It has…
The properties of the nonextensive parameter q and the Tsallis distribution for self-gravitating systems are studied. A mathematical expression of q is deduced based on the generalized Boltzmann equation, the q-H theorem and the generalized…
The Lagrangian technique of Niven (2004, Physica A, 334(3-4): 444) is used to determine the constrained forms of the Tsallis entropy function - i.e. Lagrangian functions in which the probabilities of each state are independent - for each…
We address the now classical problem of a diffusion process that crosses over from a ballistic behavior at short times to a fractional diffusion (sub- or super-diffusion) at longer times. Using the standard non-Markovian diffusion equation…
A formal correspondence between the q-distribution obtained from the Tsallis entropy and non-maxwellian distributions obtained from the Boltzmann-Gibbs entropy is afforded.
This paper proposes a new method for estimating the joint probability mass function of a pair of discrete random variables. This estimator is used to construct joint Shannon R\'enyi-Tsallis entropies, and the mutual information estimates of…
The asymptotic convergence of probability density function (pdf) and convergence of differential entropy are examined for the non-stationary processes that follow the maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt) and maximum entropy production…
The view that the probability density function (PDF) of a key statistical variable, anomalously scaled by size or time, could furnish a hallmark of universal behavior contrasts with the circumstance that such density sensibly depends on…
In this manuscript we investigate quantum uncertainties in a Tsallis' non additive scenario. To such an end we appeal to q-exponentials, that are the cornerstone of Tsallis' theory. In this respect, it is found that some new mathematics is…
We investigate the form of the one-point probability distribution function (pdf) for the density field of the interstellar medium using numerical simulations that successively reduce the number of physical processes included.…
We show that Abe's general pseudoadditivity for entropy prescribed by thermal equilibrium in nonextensive systems holds not only for entropy, but also for energy. The application of this general pseudoadditivity to Tsallis entropy tells us…
Gibbs-Boltzmann entropy leads to systems that have a strong dependence on initial conditions. In reality, most materials behave quite independently of initial conditions. Nonextensive entropy or Tsallis entropy leads to nonextensive…
We present a sampling-based trajectory optimization method derived from the maximum entropy formulation of Differential Dynamic Programming with Tsallis entropy. This method is a generalization of the legacy work with Shannon entropy, which…
We discuss estimating the probability that the sum of nonnegative independent and identically distributed random variables falls below a given threshold, i.e., $\mathbb{P}(\sum_{i=1}^{N}{X_i} \leq \gamma)$, via importance sampling (IS). We…
In numerous instances, the generalized exponential distribution can be used as an alternative to the most widely used non-regular family of distributions: Weibull, gamma, lognormal with three-parameters when analyzing lifetime or any skewed…
Usually, the Kohlrausch (stretched exponential) function is employed to fit the luminescence decays. In this work we propose to use the Tsallis distribution as an alternative to describe them. We show that the curves of the luminescence…
In this paper we give an interpretation of Tsallis' nonextensive statistical mechanics based upon the information-theoretic point of view of Luzzi et al. [cond-mat/0306217; cond-mat/0306247; cond-mat/0307325], suggesting Tsallis' entropy to…
Based on Tsallis entropy and the corresponding deformed exponential function, generalized distribution functions for bosons and fermions have been used since a while. However, aiming at a non-extensive quantum statistics further…
