ABSTRACT
In the paper we propose, using the logical entropy function, a new kind of entropy in product MV-algebras, namely the logical entropy and its conditional version. Fundamental characteristics of these quantities have been shown and subsequently, the results regarding the logical entropy have been used to define the logical mutual information of experiments in the studied case. In addition, we define the logical cross entropy and logical divergence for the examined situation and prove basic properties of the suggested quantities. To illustrate the results, we provide several numerical examples.
ABSTRACT
In the presented article, we define the R-norm entropy and the conditional R-norm entropy of partitions of a given fuzzy probability space and study the properties of the suggested entropy measures. In addition, we introduce the concept of R-norm divergence of fuzzy P-measures and we derive fundamental properties of this quantity. Specifically, it is shown that the Shannon entropy and the conditional Shannon entropy of fuzzy partitions can be derived from the R-norm entropy and conditional R-norm entropy of fuzzy partitions, respectively, as the limiting cases for R going to 1; the Kullback-Leibler divergence of fuzzy P-measures may be inferred from the R-norm divergence of fuzzy P-measures as the limiting case for R going to 1. We also provide numerical examples that illustrate the results.
ABSTRACT
This article deals with new concepts in a product MV-algebra, namely, with the concepts of Rényi entropy and Rényi divergence. We define the Rényi entropy of order q of a partition in a product MV-algebra and its conditional version and we study their properties. It is shown that the proposed concepts are consistent, in the case of the limit of q going to 1, with the Shannon entropy of partitions in a product MV-algebra defined and studied by Petrovicová (Soft Comput. 2000, 4, 41-44). Moreover, we introduce and study the notion of Rényi divergence in a product MV-algebra. It is proven that the Kullback-Leibler divergence of states on a given product MV-algebra introduced by Markechová and Riecan in (Entropy 2017, 19, 267) can be obtained as the limit of their Rényi divergence. In addition, the relationship between the Rényi entropy and the Rényi divergence as well as the relationship between the Rényi divergence and Kullback-Leibler divergence in a product MV-algebra are examined.
ABSTRACT
This paper is concerned with the mathematical modelling of Tsallis entropy in product MV-algebra dynamical systems. We define the Tsallis entropy of order α , where α ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) ∪ ( 1 , ∞ ) , of a partition in a product MV-algebra and its conditional version and we examine their properties. Among other, it is shown that the Tsallis entropy of order α , where α > 1 , has the property of sub-additivity. This property allows us to define, for α > 1 , the Tsallis entropy of a product MV-algebra dynamical system. It is proven that the proposed entropy measure is invariant under isomorphism of product MV-algebra dynamical systems.
ABSTRACT
In this contribution, we introduce the concepts of logical entropy and logical mutual information of experiments in the intuitionistic fuzzy case, and study the basic properties of the suggested measures. Subsequently, by means of the suggested notion of logical entropy of an IF-partition, we define the logical entropy of an IF-dynamical system. It is shown that the logical entropy of IF-dynamical systems is invariant under isomorphism. Finally, an analogy of the Kolmogorov-Sinai theorem on generators for IF-dynamical systems is proved.
ABSTRACT
In this article, we present the andragogical research project and evaluation of its results using nonparametric statistical methods and the semantic differential method. The presented research was realized in the years 2012-2013 in the dissertation of I. Zeravíková: Analysis of professional competencies of lecturer and creating his competence profile (Zeravíková 2013), and its purpose was based on the analysis of work activities of a lecturer to identify his most important professional competencies and to create a suggestion of competence profile of a lecturer in adult education.
