How Hidden are Hidden Processes? A Primer on Crypticity and Entropy Convergence
John R. Mahoney, Christopher J. Ellison, Ryan G. James +1
We investigate a stationary process's crypticity---a measure of the difference between its hidden state information and its observed information---using the causal states of comput…
Information Symmetries in Irreversible Processes
Christopher J. Ellison, John R. Mahoney, Ryan G. James +2
We study dynamical reversibility in stationary stochastic processes from an information theoretic perspective. Extending earlier work on the reversibility of Markov chains, we focu…
Anatomy of a Bit: Information in a Time Series Observation
Ryan G. James, Christopher J. Ellison, James P. Crutchfield
Appealing to several multivariate information measures---some familiar, some new here---we analyze the information embedded in discrete-valued stochastic time series. We dissect th…
