ECEA 2015 - 2nd International Electronic Conference on Entropy and Its Applications

2nd International Electronic Conference on Entropy and Its Applications. This event aims to bring together researchers working in the field to present and discuss their recent contributions, without the need to travel.
The field of entropy-related research has been particularly fruitful in the past few decades, and continues to produce important results in a range of scientific areas, including thermal engineering, quantum communications, and wildlife research. The inter-disciplinary nature of contributions from both theoretical and applied perspectives of entropy are welcome, including papers addressing conceptual and methodological developments, as well as new applications of entropy and information theory. The conference will address various research topics, these being brought together in six sessions, and which reflect the inter-disciplinary nature of entropy and its applications:
Physics and Engineering: Thermodynamics, Statistical Mechanics, the Second Law of Thermodynamics, Reversibility, Quantum Mechanics, Black Hole Physics, Maximum Entropy Methods, Maximum Entropy Production, Evolution of the Universe
(Section A)
Information Theory: Shannon Entropy, Kullback-Leibler Divergence, Channel Capacity, Renyi and other Entropies, and Applications
(Section B)
Complex Systems: Self-Organization, Chaos and Nonlinear Dynamics, Simplicity and Complexity, Networks, Symmetry Breaking, Similarity
(Section C)
Chemistry and Biology: Chemical Networks, Energy, Enthalpy, Maximum Entropy Methods, Biological Networks, Evolution, DNA and RNA, Diversity
(Section D)
Machine Learning and Systems Theory: Artificial Intelligence, Neural Networks, Cybernetics, Robotics, Man?Machine Interfaces, Causality
(Section E)
Posters: In this section, posters can be presented stand-alone, i.e., without a proceedings paper that goes with it. Posters will be available online on this website during and after the e-conference. However, posters will not be added to the proceedings of the conference.
