Rethinking animal social complexity measures with the help of complex systems concepts
Elizabeth A. Hobson, Vanessa Ferdinand, Artemy Kolchinsky +1
Explaining how and why some species evolved to have more complex social structures than others has been a long-term goal for many researchers in animal behavior because it would pr…
Caveats for information bottleneck in deterministic scenarios
Artemy Kolchinsky, Brendan D. Tracey, Steven Van Kuyk
Information bottleneck (IB) is a method for extracting information from one random variable that is relevant for predicting another random variable . To do so, IB identifies…
Semantic information, autonomous agency, and nonequilibrium statistical physics
Artemy Kolchinsky, David H. Wolpert
Shannon information theory provides various measures of so-called "syntactic information", which reflect the amount of statistical correlation between systems. In contrast, the con…
Thermodynamics of computing with circuits
David Hilton Wolpert, Artemy Kolchinsky
Digital computers implement computations using circuits, as do many naturally occurring systems (e.g., gene regulatory networks). The topology of any such circuit restricts which v…
A spectrum of routing strategies for brain networks
Andrea Avena-Koenigsberger, Xiaoran Yan, Artemy Kolchinsky +3
Communication of signals among nodes in a complex network poses fundamental problems of efficiency and cost. Routing of messages along shortest paths requires global information ab…
