Joint MRI Bias Removal Using Entropy Minimization Across Images
The correction of bias in magnetic resonance images is an important problem in medical image processing. Most previous approaches have used a maximum likelihood method to increase...

Inaccessible entropy
We put forth a new computational notion of entropy, which measures the (in)feasibility of sampling high entropy strings that are consistent with a given protocol. Specifically, we...

A 2-Source Almost-Extractor for Linear Entropy
We give an explicit construction of a function that is almost a 2-source extractor for linear entropy, it is a condenser where the output has almost full entropy. Given 2 sources w...

Metric-Entropy Pairs on Lattices
Abstract: We introduce the notion of ∧- and ∨-pairs of functions on lattices as an abstraction of the notions of metric and its related entropy for probability distributions. T...
