Minimum Description Length codes are critical
Ryan John Cubero, Matteo Marsili, Yasser Roudi
In the Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle, learning from the data is equivalent to an optimal coding problem. We show that the codes that achieve optimal compression in MDL…

Statistical Criticality arises in Most Informative Representations
Ryan John Cubero, Junghyo Jo, Matteo Marsili +2
We show that statistical criticality, i.e. the occurrence of power law frequency distributions, arises in samples that are maximally informative about the underlying generating pro…

Multiscale relevance and informative encoding in neuronal spike trains
Ryan John Cubero, Matteo Marsili, Yasser Roudi
Neuronal responses to complex stimuli and tasks can encompass a wide range of time scales. Understanding these responses requires measures that characterize how the information on…
