Inter-Scale Information Flow as a Surrogate for Downward Causation That Maintains Spiral Waves
Hiroshi Ashikaga, Ryan G. James
The mechanism that maintains atrial fibrillation (AF) remains elusive. One approach to understanding and controlling the mechanism ("AF driver") is to quantify inter-scale informat…
Unique Information via Dependency Constraints
Ryan G. James, Jeffrey Emenheiser, James P. Crutchfield
The partial information decomposition (PID) is perhaps the leading proposal for resolving information shared between a set of sources and a target into redundant, synergistic, and…
Prediction and Generation of Binary Markov Processes: Can a Finite-State Fox Catch a Markov Mouse?
J. Ruebeck, R. G. James, J. R. Mahoney +1
Understanding the generative mechanism of a natural system is a vital component of the scientific method. Here, we investigate one of the fundamental steps toward this goal by pres…
Trimming the Independent Fat: Sufficient Statistics, Mutual Information, and Predictability from Effective Channel States
Ryan G. James, John R. Mahoney, James P. Crutchfield
One of the most fundamental questions one can ask about a pair of random variables X and Y is the value of their mutual information. Unfortunately, this task is often stymied by th…
