Abstract: Information retrieval is concerned with how to classify information and how to judge the similarity between two objects, such as written documents. As the amount of information available in digital form has grown, so too has the need for accurate and scalable algorithms for handling this information. Information theory is concerned with the production and transmission of information. Using a framework known as the source-channel model of communication, information theory has established...
