In information theory and statistics, negentropy is used as a measure of distance to normality. The concept and phrase "negative entropy" was introduced by Erwin Schrödinger in his 1944 popular-science book What is Life?[1] Later, Léon Brillouin shortened the phrase to negentropy.[2][3] In 1974, Albert Szent-Györgyi proposed replacing the term negentropy with syntropy. That term may have originated in the 1940s with the Italian mathematician Luigi Fantappiè, who tried to construct a unified theory of biology and physics. Buckminster Fuller tried to popularize this usage, but negentropy remains common.

信息论 information theory统计学 statistics中,负熵 negentropy被用于度量与正态分布之间的距离。“负熵”这一概念是埃尔温·薛定谔在他1944年的科普著作《生命是什么?》 What is Life?中首次提出,后来莱昂·布里渊把这个短语缩写为“负熵”。1974年, 阿尔伯特·圣捷尔吉提出用短语“同向”代替“负熵”。这个术语可能源于20世纪40年代意大利数学家 Luigi fantappi,他试图建立一个生物学和物理学的统一理论。巴克敏斯特·福乐试图推广这种用法,但是迄今为止负熵仍被广泛使用。

如果我只是迎合他们物理学家,我应该让讨论转向自由能 free energy。在这个语境中,自由能是更熟悉的概念。但是,这个高度专业的术语在语言学上似乎太接近于能量 energy,无法让普通读者生动地看到两者之间的区别。

In 2009, Mahulikar & Herwig redefined negentropy of a dynamically ordered sub-system as the specific entropy deficit of the ordered sub-system relative to its surrounding chaos.[4] Thus, negentropy has SI units of (J kg−1 K−1) when defined based on specific entropy per unit mass, and (K−1) when defined based on specific entropy per unit energy. This definition enabled: i) scale-invariant thermodynamic representation of dynamic order existence, ii) formulation of physical principles exclusively for dynamic order existence and evolution, and iii) mathematical interpretation of Schrödinger's negentropy debt.

2009年,Mahulikar 和 Herwig 将动态有序子系统的负熵重新定义为有序子系统相对于周围混沌的特定熵赤字。因此,根据单位质量的熵定义负熵的 SI 单位为(J kg−1 K−1) ,其中(K−1)的定义基于单位能量的熵。这个定义实现了: i)动态有序存在的尺度不变的热力学表示,ii)专门为动态有序存在和演化而制定的物理原理,iii)薛定谔负熵的数学解释。


Information theory 信息论

In information theory and statistics, negentropy is used as a measure of distance to normality.[5][6][7] Out of all distributions with a given mean and variance, the normal or Gaussian distribution is the one with the highest entropy. Negentropy measures the difference in entropy between a given distribution and the Gaussian distribution with the same mean and variance. Thus, negentropy is always nonnegative, is invariant by any linear invertible change of coordinates, and vanishes if and only if the signal is Gaussian.

在信息论和统计学中,负熵被用来度量到正态分布的距离。在所有具有给定均值和方差的分布中,正态分布或高斯分布的熵最大。负熵用来度量具有相同均值和方差的给定分布和正态分布之间熵的差距。因此,负熵总是非负的,在任何线性可逆的坐标变换下都是不变的,当且仅当信号是高斯分布 Gaussian distribution时才变为零。

Correlation between statistical negentropy and Gibbs' free energy 统计学负熵与吉布斯自由能的关联

 
Willard Gibbs’ 1873 available energy (free energy) graph, which shows a plane perpendicular to the axis of v (volume) and passing through point A, which represents the initial state of the body. MN is the section of the surface of dissipated energy. Qε and Qη are sections of the planes η = 0 and ε = 0, and therefore parallel to the axes of ε (internal energy) and η (entropy) respectively. AD and AE are the energy and entropy of the body in its initial state, AB and AC its available energy (Gibbs energy) and its capacity for entropy (the amount by which the entropy of the body can be increased without changing the energy of the body or increasing its volume) respectively.

[ Willard Gibbs 1873年的可用能量(自由能)图,它显示了一个垂直于 v (体积)轴和通过点A的平面,A点表示物体的初始状态。MN 是耗散能曲面的交线。Qε 和 Qη 分别是平面η = 0 和 ε = 0的交线,因此分别与 ε (内能)和 η (熵)轴平行。AD 和 AE 分别是物体初始状态的能量和熵,AB 和 AC 分别是物体的有效能(吉布斯能)和熵的容量(在不改变物体能量或增加物体体积的情况下物体可以增加的熵的量)

There is a physical quantity closely linked to free energy (free enthalpy), with a unit of entropy and isomorphic to negentropy known in statistics and information theory. In 1873, Willard Gibbs created a diagram illustrating the concept of free energy corresponding to free enthalpy. On the diagram one can see the quantity called capacity for entropy. This quantity is the amount of entropy that may be increased without changing an internal energy or increasing its volume.[10] In other words, it is a difference between maximum possible, under assumed conditions, entropy and its actual entropy. It corresponds exactly to the definition of negentropy adopted in statistics and information theory. A similar physical quantity was introduced in 1869 by Massieu for the isothermal process[11][12][13] (both quantities differs just with a figure sign) and then Planck for the isothermal-isobaric process.[14] More recently, the Massieu–Planck thermodynamic potential, known also as free entropy, has been shown to play a great role in the so-called entropic formulation of statistical mechanics,[15] applied among the others in molecular biology[16] and thermodynamic non-equilibrium processes.[17]

存在一个与自由能(自由焓 free enthalpy)密切相关的物理量,它具有熵的单位并且与统计学和信息论中我们所知的负熵同构。1873年,威拉德·吉布斯创建了一个图表,说明了自由能对应于自由焓的概念。在图表上,我们可以看到称为熵的容量 capacity for entropy的物理量。这个量表示在不改变内能 internal energy或增加体积的情况下,可以增加的熵值。换句话说,它是在假定条件下可能的最大熵值与实际熵之间的差异。它正好符合统计学和信息论中负熵的定义。1869年,Massieu 在等温过程 isothermal process(两个量只有一个图形符号不同)中引入了一个类似的物理量,然后 Planck 引入到等温-等压 isothermal-isobaric process过程中。最近,Massieu–Planck 热力学势,也被称为自由熵,已被证明在所谓的统计力学熵表述中发挥了重要作用,应用于分子生物学和热力学非平衡过程。

In particular, mathematically the negentropy (the negative entropy function, in physics interpreted as free entropy) is the convex conjugate of LogSumExp (in physics interpreted as the free energy).

特别地,数学上的负熵(负熵函数,在物理学中解释为自由熵)是 LogSumExp 的凸共轭(在物理学中解释为自由能)。

Brillouin's negentropy principle of information 布里渊信息负熵原理

In 1953, Léon Brillouin derived a general equation[18] stating that the changing of an information bit value requires at least kT ln(2) energy. This is the same energy as the work Leó Szilárd's engine produces in the idealistic case. In his book,[19] he further explored this problem concluding that any cause of this bit value change (measurement, decision about a yes/no question, erasure, display, etc.) will require the same amount of energy.

1953年,布里渊推导出一个一般性方程,说明改变一个信息比特值至少需要 kT ln (2)的能量。这与理想情况下 Leó Szilárd 引擎所产生的能量相同。在他的书中,他进一步探讨了这个问题,得出结论: 任何原因产生一个比特的改变(测量、关于是/否问题的决定、擦除、显示等等)都需要同样的能量。
