Algorithmic information theory provides a rigorous framework for quantifying the inherent complexity of data, most notably through the concept of Kolmogorov complexity. This theoretical underpinning ...

Algorithmic complexity and information theory are foundational disciplines that intersect to elucidate how data is structured, transmitted and computed. At its core, algorithmic complexity seeks to ...

This episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast features Alex May, whose research explores the intersection of quantum gravity and quantum information theory. Based at Canada’s Perimeter Institute ...

Waves pick up information from their environment through which they propagate. A theory of information carried by waves has now been developed at TU Wien—with astonishing results that can be utilized ...

Integrated Information Theory (IIT) is a widely discussed—and, by some, strongly promoted —“mathematical theory of consciousness” developed over the past 10-20 years or so, mainly by neuroscientist ...
