This article deals with new concepts in a product MV-algebra, namely, with the concepts of Rényi entropy and Rényi divergence. We define the Rényi entropy of order q of a partition in a product MV-algebra and its conditional version and we study their properties. It is shown that the proposed concepts are consistent, in the case of the limit of q going to 1, with the Shannon entropy of partitions in a product MV-algebra defined and studied by Petrovičová (Soft Comput.2000, 4, 41–44). Moreover, we introduce and study the notion of Rényi divergence in a product MV-algebra. It is proven that the Kullback–Leibler divergence of states on a given product MV-algebra introduced by Markechová and Riečan in (Entropy2017, 19, 267) can be obtained as the limit of their Rényi divergence. In addition, the relationship between the Rényi entropy and the Rényi divergence as well as the relationship between the Rényi divergence and Kullback–Leibler divergence in a product MV-algebra are examined.

The aim of this study is to extend the results concerning the Shannon entropy and Kullback–Leibler divergence in sequential effect algebra to the case of Rényi entropy and Rényi divergence. For this purpose, the Rényi entropy of finite partitions in sequential effect algebra and its conditional version are proposed and the basic properties of these entropy measures are derived. In addition, the notion of Rényi divergence of a partition in sequential effect algebra is introduced and the basic properties of this quantity are studied. In particular, it is proved that the Kullback–Leibler divergence and Shannon’s entropy of partitions in a given sequential effect algebra can be obtained as limits of their Rényi divergence and Rényi entropy respectively. Finally, to illustrate the results, some numerical examples are presented.

Abstract Our objective in this paper is to define and study the Rényi entropy and the Rényi divergence in the intuitionistic fuzzy case. We define the Rényi entropy of order of intuitionistic fuzzy experiments (which are modeled by IF-partitions) and its conditional version and we examine their properties. It is shown that the suggested concepts are consistent, in the case of the limit of q going to 1, with the Shannon entropy of IF-partitions. In addition, we introduce and study the concept of Rényi divergence in the intuitionistic fuzzy case. Specifically, relationships between the Rényi divergence and Kullback-Leibler divergence and between the Rényi divergence and the Rényi entropy in the intuitionistic fuzzy case are studied. The results are illustrated with several numerical examples.

Knowledge of the electronic structures of atomic and molecular systems deepens our understanding of the desired system. In particular, several information-theoretic quantities, such as Shannon entropy, have been applied to quantify the extent of electron delocalization for the ground state of various systems. To explore excited states, we calculated Shannon entropy and two of its one-parameter generalizations, Rényi entropy of order α and Tsallis entropy of order α , and Onicescu Information Energy of order α for four low-lying singly excited states (1s2s 1 S e , 1s2s 3 S e , 1s3s 1 S e , and 1s3s 3 S e states) of helium. This paper compares the behavior of these three quantities of order 0.5 to 9 for the ground and four excited states. We found that, generally, a higher excited state had a larger Rényi entropy, larger Tsallis entropy, and smaller Onicescu information energy. However, this trend was not definite and the singlet–triplet reversal occurred for Rényi entropy, Tsallis entropy and Onicescu information energy at a certain range of order α .

AbstractThe main goal of this paper is to give some representations of MV-algebras in terms of derivations. In this paper, we investigate some properties of implicative and difference derivations and give their characterizations in MV-algebras. Then, we show that every Boolean algebra (idempotent MV-algebra) is isomorphic to the algebra of all implicative derivations and obtain that a direct product representation of MV-algebra by implicative derivations. Moreover, we prove that regular implicative and difference derivations on MV-algebras are in one to one correspondence and show that the relationship between the regular derivation pair (d, g) and the Galois connection, where d and g are regular difference and implicative derivation on L, respectively. Finally, we obtain that regular difference derivations coincide with direct product decompositions of MV-algebras.

In practice, the critical step in building machine learning models of big data (BD) is costly in terms of time and the computing resources procedure of parameter tuning with a grid search. Due to the size, BD are comparable to mesoscopic physical systems. Hence, methods of statistical physics could be applied to BD. The paper shows that topic modeling demonstrates self-similar behavior under the condition of a varying number of clusters. Such behavior allows using a renormalization technique. The combination of a renormalization procedure with the Rényi entropy approach allows for fast searching of the optimal number of clusters. In this paper, the renormalization procedure is developed for the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model with a variational Expectation-Maximization algorithm. The experiments were conducted on two document collections with a known number of clusters in two languages. The paper presents results for three versions of the renormalization procedure: (1) a renormalization with the random merging of clusters, (2) a renormalization based on minimal values of Kullback–Leibler divergence and (3) a renormalization with merging clusters with minimal values of Rényi entropy. The paper shows that the renormalization procedure allows finding the optimal number of topics 26 times faster than grid search without significant loss of quality.

Abstract The relationship between wavefunction (de)localisation and avoided crossing in a quadrupole billiard is analysed. The following three-types of measures are employed for wavefunction (de)localisation: inverse participation ratio, inverse of Rényi entropy, and root-mean-square (RMS) image contrast. All these measures exhibit minimal values at the centre of the avoided crossing, where the wavefunction is maximally delocalised. Our results indicate that these quantities can be sufficient for the indication of wavefunction (de)localisation.

In this paper, we proposed a quantile version of cumulative Renyi entropy for residual and past lifetimes and study their properties. We also study quantile-based cumulative Renyi entropy for extreme order statistic when random variable untruncated or truncated in nature. Some characterization results are studied using the relationship between proposed information measure and reliability measure. We also examine it in relation to some applied problems such as weighted and equillibrium models.

Rényi entropy as a generalization of the Shannon entropy allows for different averaging of probabilities of a control parameter α. This paper gives a new perspective of the Kalman filter from the Rényi entropy. Firstly, the Rényi entropy is employed to measure the uncertainty of the multivariate Gaussian probability density function. Then, we calculate the temporal derivative of the Rényi entropy of the Kalman filter’s mean square error matrix, which will be minimized to obtain the Kalman filter’s gain. Moreover, the continuous Kalman filter approaches a steady state when the temporal derivative of the Rényi entropy is equal to zero, which means that the Rényi entropy will keep stable. As the temporal derivative of the Rényi entropy is independent of parameter α and is the same as the temporal derivative of the Shannon entropy, the result is the same as for Shannon entropy. Finally, an example of an experiment of falling body tracking by radar using an unscented Kalman filter (UKF) in noisy conditions and a loosely coupled navigation experiment are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the conclusion.

Abstract We discuss a computer implementation of a recursive formula to calculate correlation functions of descendant states in two-dimensional CFT. This allows us to obtain any N-point function of vacuum descendants, or to express the correlator as a differential operator acting on the respective primary correlator in case of non-vacuum descendants. With this tool at hand, we then study some entanglement and distinguishability measures between descendant states, namely the Rényi entropy, trace square distance and sandwiched Rényi divergence. Our results provide a test of the conjectured Rényi QNEC and new tools to analyse the holographic description of descendant states at large c.

How to timely and precisely identify attack behaviors in network without dealing with a large number of traffic features and historical data, such as training data, is an important research work in the field of network security. In this paper, firstly, the differences between Renyi entropy and Shannon entropy are analyzed and compared. In order to capture network traffic changes exactly, Renyi entropy instead of Shannon entropy is proposed to measure selected traffic features. Then EWMA control chart theory is used to check Renyi entropy time series for detecting and screening anomalies. And three kinds of network attacks are also analyzed and characterized by behavior feature vector for attack identification. Finally a feature similarity-based method is used to identify attacks. The experimental results of real traffic traces show that the proposed method has good capability to detect and identify these attacks with less computation cost. To evaluate attack identification method conveniently, an approach is proposed to generate simulated attack traffics. Compared with Shannon entropy-based method, the experiments on simulation traffics show that Renyi entropy-based method has much higher overall accuracy, average precision and average true positive rate. Further comparison indicates the proposed method has more powerful performance to detect attacks than PCA-based method.
