Information encryption in the expert management of strategic uncertainty

Seth Frey, Paul L. Williams, Dominic K. Albino

Strategic agents in incomplete-information environments have a conflicted relationship with uncertainty: it can keep them unpredictable to their opponents, but it must also be over…

Generalized Measures of Information Transfer

Paul L. Williams, Randall D. Beer

Transfer entropy provides a general tool for analyzing the magnitudes and directions---but not the \emph{kinds}---of information transfer in a system. We extend transfer entropy in…

Nonnegative Decomposition of Multivariate Information

Paul L. Williams, Randall D. Beer

Of the various attempts to generalize information theory to multiple variables, the most widely utilized, interaction information, suffers from the problem that it is sometimes neg…
