Here, I review facts that are most probably known, namely that the information gain criterion used to drive experimental design in a linear-Gaussian model is submodular, so that a well-known approximation guarantee holds for the sequential greedy algorithm ...
We investigate the spreading of information in a one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard system after a sudden parameter change. In particular, we study the time evolution of correlations and entanglement following a quench. The investigated quantities show a light-c ...
The memoryless noncoherent single-input-single-output (SISO) Rayleigh-fading channel is considered. Closed-form expressions are derived for the mutual information between the output and the input of this channel when the input magnitude distribution is dis ...
A quantitative measure of relevance is proposed for the task of constructing visual feature sets which are at the same time relevant and compact. A feature's relevance is given by the amount of information that it contains about the problem, while compactn ...
Consider communication over a binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channel with low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoding. The replica method of spin glass theory allows to conjecture an analytic formula for the aver ...
Satellites and ground-based stations have recorded various types of data from the solar-terrestrial system during recent decades. The new type of particle detectors in SEVAN (Space Environmental Viewing and Analysis Network) project will be able to measure ...
Understanding the guiding principles of sensory coding strategies is a main goal in computational neuroscience. Among others, the principles of predictive coding and slowness appear to capture aspects of sensory processing. Predictive coding postulates tha ...

A speaker diarization system based on an information theoretic framework is described. The problem is formulated according to the {\em Information Bottleneck} (IB) principle. Unlike other approaches where the distance between speaker segments is arbitraril ...
The problem of feature selection has been thoroughly analyzed in the context of pattern classification, with the purpose of avoiding the curse of dimensionality. However, in the context of multimodal signal processing, this problem has been studied less. O ...
