This course focuses on secure communication built on information theory, which does not assume that an adversary has computational limitations. We will begin from the basics of information theory, ...

For decades, physicists have faced one of science’s greatest puzzles: merging quantum mechanics, which describes tiny particles, with general relativity, which explains the universe’s vast structures.

New research challenges a popular conception of how machine learning algorithms 'think' about certain tasks. New research challenges a popular conception of how machine learning algorithms "think" ...

With the help of a new experiment, researchers at Linköping University, among others, have succeeded in confirming a ten-year-old theoretical study, which connects one of the most fundamental aspects ...

We live in the Information Age. Some physicists believe that information is a fundamental aspect of nature. All such theories rest on the adequacy of information theory. In this post I shall argue ...

Understanding the biology behind consciousness (or self-awareness) is considered by some to be the final frontier of science. And over the last decade, a fledgling community of “consciousness ...
