The concept of information functions of type β ( β > 0) is introduced and discussed. By means of these information functions the entropies of type β are defined. These entropies have a number of interesting algebraic and analytic properties similar to Shannon's entropy. The capacity of type β ( β > 1) of a discrete constant channel is defined by means of the entropy of type β . Examples are given for the computation of the capacity of type β , from which the Shannon's capacity can be derived as the limiting case β = 1.read more

Paradigms of Cognition
TL;DR: An abstract, quantitative theory which connects elements of information —key ingredients in the cognitive proces—is developed and seemingly unrelated results are thereby unified, providing a general framework for the treatment of a multitude of global optimization problems across a range of disciplines such as geometry, statistics and statistical physics.

A short characterization of relative entropy
TL;DR: It is shown that earlier proofs can be simplified considerably, at the same time relaxing some of the hypotheses, for characterization theorems for relative entropy, q- logarithmic entropy, and q-logarithic relative entropy.

TL;DR: A measure of information of type (α, β, γ) is characterized by taking certain axioms parallel to those considered earlier by Harvda and Charvat along with the recursive relation (1.7).

TL;DR: A warning device associated with arotatable body comprising means on the rotatable body for creating a magnetic field, a receiving coil on a relatively stationary member arranged such that a warning is given upon occurrence of a predetermined condition, such as pressure of a vehicle wheel deviating outside a predetermined limit.
