Pragmatic Information, Computation, and the Efficient Market Hypothesis
Edward D. Weinberger
The efficient market hypothesis, that prices reflect all available information, imputes a meaning to market moving information, a view of information foreign to standard informatio…
A multi-objective optimization framework for sustainable transitions
Cris R. Hasan, Luigi Cao Pinna, John Crawford +5
Achieving a just and sustainable transition requires the pursuit of multiple social and environmental targets. Two primary barriers impede this process: (1) targets are often in co…
Towards a Theory of Pragmatic Information
Edward D. Weinberger
Standard information theory says nothing about how much meaning is conveyed by a message. We fill this gap with a quantitative definition of ``pragmatic information'', the amount o…
Pragmatic Information Rates, Generalizations of the Kelly Criterion, and Financial Market Efficiency
Edward D. Weinberger
This paper is part of an ongoing investigation of "pragmatic information", defined in Weinberger (2002) as "the amount of information actually used in making a decision". Because a…
Pragmatic Information and Gaian Development -- First Thoughts
Edward D. Weinberger
The scientific community believes in the theory of evolution with a passion that rivals that of any religious belief. This passion extends beyond the irrefutable evidence of the fo…
Computational Complexity as a Source of Thermodynamic Irreversibility
Edward D Weinberger
In spite of the fact that the Newtonian dynsmics of the underlying molecules do not seem to favor one direction of time over its opposite, the non-decreasing entropy of macroscopic…
