Large language models achieve strong reasoning performance, yet existing decoding strategies either explore blindly (random sampling) or redundantly (independent multi-sampling). We propose Entropy-Tree, a tree-based decoding method that…

The electronic density \rho(r) in atoms, molecules and solids is, in general, a distribution that can be observed experimentally, containing spatial information projected from the total wave function. These density distributions can be…

We propose a new measure of quantum entanglement. Our measure is defined in terms of conditional information transmission for a Quantum Bayesian Net. We show that our measure is identically equal to the Entanglement of Formation in the case…

A general framework is developed for separating classical and quantum correlations in a multipartite system. Entanglement is defined as the difference in the correlation information encoded by the state of a system and a suitably defined…

Information theory provides tools to predict the performance of a learning algorithm on a given dataset. For instance, the accuracy of learning an unknown parameter can be upper bounded by reducing the learning task to hypothesis testing…

Quantum entropy is an important measure for describing the uncertainty of a quantum state, more uncertainty in subsystems implies stronger quantum entanglement between subsystems. Our goal in this work is to quantify bipartite entanglement…

Although some information-theoretic measures of uncertainty or granularity have been proposed in rough set theory, these measures are only dependent on the underlying partition and the cardinality of the universe, independent of the lower…

The Shannon entropy of a random variable has much behaviour analogous to a signed measure. Previous work has explored this connection by defining a signed measure on abstract sets, which are taken to represent the information that different…
