Information transfer: Theory and Applications

Richard Kleeman

New York University, Courant, Mathematics, USA

The flow of information through a dynamical system is interesting in a purely theoretical way but also because there are many potentially useful applications. In this talk we review the measures that have been proposed in recent years with a particular emphasis on a more rigorous formalism proposed by the speaker and coworkers very recently. We then consider important applications in the design of observing networks for prediction and also for the analysis of stochastic models of complex systems.
