Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is dedicated to the memory of Rudolf Ahlswede, who passed away in December 2010. The Festschrift contains 36 thoroughly refereed research papers from a memorial symposium, which took place in July 2011. The four macro-topics of this workshop: theory of games and strategic planning; combinatorial group testing and database mining; computational biology and string matching; information coding and spreading and patrolling on networks; provide a comprehensive picture of the vision Rudolf Ahlswede put forward of a broad and systematic theory of search.

Book excerpt: God’s war crimes, Aristotle’s sneaky tricks, Einstein’s pajamas, information theory’s blind spot, Stephen Wolfram’s new kind of science, and six monkeys at six typewriters getting it wrong. What do these have to do with the birth of a universe and with your need for meaning? Everything, as you’re about to see. How does the cosmos do something it has long been thought only gods could achieve? How does an inanimate universe generate stunning new forms and unbelievable new powers without a creator? How does the cosmos create? That’s the central question of this book, which finds clues in strange places. Why A does not equal A. Why one plus one does not equal two. How the Greeks used kickballs to reinvent the universe. And the reason that Polish-born Benoît Mandelbrot—the father of fractal geometry—rebelled against his uncle. You’ll take a scientific expedition into the secret heart of a cosmos you’ve never seen. Not just any cosmos. An electrifyingly inventive cosmos. An obsessive-compulsive cosmos. A driven, ambitious cosmos. A cosmos of colossal shocks. A cosmos of screaming, stunning surprise. A cosmos that breaks five of science’s most sacred laws. Yes, five. And you’ll be rewarded with author Howard Bloom’s provocative new theory of the beginning, middle, and end of the universe—the Bloom toroidal model, also known as the big bagel theory—which explains two of the biggest mysteries in physics: dark energy and why, if antimatter and matter are created in equal amounts, there is so little antimatter in this universe. Called "truly awesome" by Nobel Prize–winner Dudley Herschbach, The God Problem will pull you in with the irresistible attraction of a black hole and spit you out again enlightened with the force of a big bang. Be prepared to have your mind blown. From the Hardcover edition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a succinct and mathematically rigorous treatment of the main pillars of Shannon’s information theory, discussing the fundamental concepts and indispensable results of Shannon’s mathematical theory of communications. It includes five meticulously written core chapters (with accompanying problems), emphasizing the key topics of information measures; lossless and lossy data compression; channel coding; and joint source-channel coding for single-user (point-to-point) communications systems. It also features two appendices covering necessary background material in real analysis and in probability theory and stochastic processes. The book is ideal for a one-semester foundational course on information theory for senior undergraduate and entry-level graduate students in mathematics, statistics, engineering, and computing and information sciences. A comprehensive instructor’s solutions manual is available.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book deals with the application of various measures of information like the entropy, divergence, inaccuracy, etc. in modelling lifetimes of devices or equipment in reliability analysis. This is an emerging area of study and research during the last two decades and is of potential interest in many fields. In this work the classical measures of uncertainty are sufficiently modified to meet the needs of lifetime data analysis. The book provides an exhaustive collection of materials in a single volume to make it a comprehensive source of reference. The first treatise on the subject. It brings together the work that have appeared in journals on different disciplines. It will serve as a text for graduate students and practioners of special studies in information theory, as well as statistics and as a reference book for researchers. The book contains illustrative examples, tables and figures for clarifying the concepts and methodologies, the book is self-contained. It helps students to access information relevant to careers in industry, engineering, applied statistics, etc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book covers thoroughly all that is needed for a full understanding of reliability in terms of classical theory. Ross E. Traub manages to make clear the difference between reliability as a theoretical construct and methods of estimating it in practice. In a useful chapter, he proceeds to examine factors that may affect the reliability of a test, including time limits, test length, item characteristics, subjectively scored items, and heterogeneity of the population taking the test. . . . The book is a useful reference for those with some understanding of reliability theory and would probably make a reasonable textbook (including copious exercises) for those studying the subject from scratch, provided their mathematical background was adequate." --Ian Schagen in Educational Research How can social scientists assess the reliability of the measures derived from tests and questionnaires? Through a careful and illustrative review of the principles of classical reliability theory, Ross E. Traub explores some general strategies for improving measurement procedures. Beginning with a presentation of random variables and the expected values of a random variable, Reliability for the Social Sciences covers such topics as the definition of reliability as a coefficient and possible uses of a coefficient, the notion of parallel tests so as to make possible the estimation of a reliability coefficient for a set of measurements, what to do when parallel tests are not available, what factors affect the reliability coefficient, and how to estimate the standard error of measurement. Aimed at giving readers a nontechnical treatment of classical reliability theory, the book also includes end-of-chapter exercises, as well as boxes that give more in-depth coverage of major topics or that provide algebraic proofs.
