Thermodynamics of emergent structure in active matter
Emanuele Crosato, Mikhail Prokopenko, Richard E. Spinney
Active matter is rapidly becoming a key paradigm of out-of-equilibrium soft matter exhibiting complex collective phenomena, yet the thermodynamics of such systems remain poorly und…

A thermodynamically consistent model of finite state machines
Dominique Chu, Richard Spinney
Finite state machines (FSMs) are a theoretically and practically important model of computation. We propose a general, thermodynamically consistent model of FSMs and characterise t…

Characterising information-theoretic storage and transfer in continuous time processes
Richard E. Spinney, Joseph T. Lizier
The characterisation of information processing is an important task in complex systems science. Information dynamics is a quantitative methodology for modelling the intrinsic infor…
