A Possible Extension of Shannon's Information Theory
Copyright policy )A Possible Extension of Shannon's Information Theory
As a possible generalization of Shannon's information theory, we review the formalism based on the non-logarithmic information content parametrized by a real number q, which exhibits nonadditivity of the associated uncertainty. Moreover it is shown that the establishment of the concept of the mutual information is of importance upon the generalization.
