The use of multiple entropy models for Huffman or arithmetic coding is widely used to improve the compression efficiency of many algorithms when the source probability distribution varies. However, ...

Explore the intriguing solution to Maxwell's demon paradox as Rolf Landauer reveals how erasing information generates heat and increases the entropy of a system. #MaxwellsDemon #InformationTheory ...

In a study published in Physical Review Letters, physicists have demonstrated that black holes satisfy the third law of thermodynamics, which states that entropy remains positive and vanishes at ...

The Danish author Solvej Balle’s experimental opus reframes the tedium of contemporary life as a source of unexpected wonders. Solvej Balle in her garden in Denmark.Credit...Giulia Mangione for The ...

A new theory suggests that gravity could possibly be the result of entropy. If true, this would mean that everything in the universe would fall apart if it all remained unchanged. This theory tries to ...

In LHC Run 3, the upgraded ALICE detector will record Pb-Pb collisions at a rate of 50 kHz using continuous readout. The resulting stream of raw data at ~3.5 TB/s has to be processed with a set of ...

Founding computer science department faculty member, David Huffman, arrives at UCSC. As an MIT graduate student in 1952, Huffman developed a data compression scheme called Huffman coding—which is now ...
