Example of a possible interpretation of Tsallis entropy
arXiv:0711.3348 · doi:10.1016/j.physa.2008.04.022
Abstract
We demonstrate and discuss the process of gaining information and show an example in which some specific way of gaining information about an object results in the Tsallis form of entropy rather than in the Shannon one.
