If quantum communication and quantum computation are to flourish, a new information theory will have to be developed. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
As every bookie knows instinctively, a number such as reliability - a qualitative rather than a quantitative measure - is needed to… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Information gently but relentlessly drizzles down on us in an invisible, impalpable electric rain. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
In order to understand information, we must define it; bit in order to define it, we must first understand it. Where to… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
The solution of the Monty Hall problem hinges on the concept of information, and more specifically, on the relationship between added information… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
In fact, an information theory that leaves out the issue of noise turns out to have no content. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Entropy is not about speeds or positions of particles, the way temperature and pressure and volume are, but about our lack of… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
The smell of subjectivity clings to the mechanical definition of complexity as stubbornly as it sticks to the definition of information. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Claude Shannon, the founder of information theory, invented a way to measure 'the amount of information' in a message without defining the… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
We don't know what energy is, any more than we know what information is, but as a now robust scientific concept we… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
Time has been called God's way of making sure that everything doesn't happen at once. In the same spirit, noise is Nature's… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image
If the intensity of the material world is plotted along the horizontal axis, and the response of the human mind is on… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share Image

Information gently but relentlessly drizzles down on us in an invisible, impalpable electric rain. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
Underneath the shifting appearances of the world as perceived by our unreliable senses, is there, or is there not, a bedrock of objective reality? — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
In fact, an information theory that leaves out the issue of noise turns out to have no content. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
Numbers instill a feeling for the lie of the land, and furnish grist for the mathematical mill that is the physicist's principal tool. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
If the intensity of the material world is plotted along the horizontal axis, and the response of the human mind is on the vertical,… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
This is not what I thought physics was about when I started out: I learned that the idea is to explain nature in terms… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
The problem of defining exactly what is meant by the signal velocity, which cropped up as long ago as 1907, has not been solved. — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
Both induction and deduction, reasoning from the particular and the general, and back again from the universal to the specific, form the essence to… — Hans Christian von Baeyer Copy Share
