On Bounding Problems of Quantitative Information Flow
Abstract. Researchers have proposed formal definitions of quantitative information flow based on information theoretic notions such as the Shannon entropy, the min entropy, the gue...

Dimension Is Compression
Abstract. Effective fractal dimension was defined by Lutz (2003) in order to quantitatively analyze the structure of complexity classes. Interesting connections of effective dim...

Information Distance
While Kolmogorov complexity is the accepted absolute measure of information content in an individual finite object, a similarly absolute notion is needed for the information distan...

Information Theory in Property Testing and Monotonicity Testing in Higher Dimension
In property testing, we are given oracle access to a function f, and we wish to test if the function satisfies a given property P, or it is ε-far from having that property. In a...

Physical limits of inference
We show that physical devices that perform observation, prediction, or recollection share an underlying mathematical structure. We call devices with that structure “inference de...
