Abstract Information theory (IT) addresses the analysis of communication systems and has
been widely applied in molecular biology. In particular, alignment-free sequence analysis …

Abstract Systems that exhibit complex behaviours are often found in a particular dynamical
condition, poised between order and disorder. This observation is at the core of the so …

While the equilibrium properties, states, and phase transitions of interacting systems are well
described by statistical mechanics, the lack of suitable state parameters has hindered the …

Context dependence is central to the description of complexity. Keying on the pairwise
definition of “set complexity,” we use an information theory approach to formulate general …

Abstract Information theory is valuable in multiple-variable analysis for being model-free and
nonparametric, and for the modest sensitivity to undersampling. We previously introduced a …

In order to study software evolution, it is necessary to measure artefacts representative of
project releases. If we consider the process of software evolution to be copying with …

During a spontaneous change, a macroscopic physical system will evolve towards a macro-
state with more realizations. This observation is at the basis of the statistical mechanical …

Information processing in biologically motivated Boolean networks is of interest in recent
information theoretic research. One measure to quantify this ability is the well-known mutual …

Antifragility is a property from which systems are able to resist stress and furthermore benefit
from it. Even though antifragile dynamics is found in various real‐world complex systems …

The tissues of multicellular organisms are made of differentiated cells arranged in organized
patterns. This organization emerges during development from the coupling of dynamic intra …
