Adaptive Distributed Multi-Sensor Detection Using Information Elasticity Approach
Abstract
The concept of information elasticity is useful in determining the relationship and role of information, in both qualitative and quantitative terms, to its interactions with the surroundings. While Shannon’s well known theory describes information in quantitative terms by assigning information value based upon event probabilities, there are several instances where information obtained can only be described in fuzzy and qualitative terms. These include statistical, syntactic, semantic and pragmatic properties of information, each having a bearing on the “information value” and its effect on decision making.
