Entropy for the Brain and Applied Computation

An understanding of the interplay between the brain region and the state of consciousness and the evolution of brain complexity, regarded as an entropy-enhancing process, has recently been proposed, leading to an increase in the space of states that can be visited, and to the accessibility of new channels. Nowadays, nonlinear and complex system theories are considered promising candidates for analyzing the principles of operation of neural networks and their entropic content. The concept of computational entropy, for example, has been utilized in cryptographic primitives, namely, in cryptographic algorithms that are used to create cryptographic protocols in computer security systems.
