In the presented article, we define the -norm entropy and the conditional -norm entropy of partitions of a given fuzzy probability space and study the properties of the suggested entropy measures. In addition, we introduce the concept of -norm divergence of fuzzy P-measures and we derive fundamental properties of this quantity. Specifically, it is shown that the Shannon entropy and the conditional Shannon entropy of fuzzy partitions can be derived from the -norm entropy and conditional -norm entropy of fuzzy partitions, respectively, as the limiting cases for going to 1; the Kullback-Leibler divergence of fuzzy P-measures may be inferred from the -norm divergence of fuzzy P-measures as the limiting case for going to 1. We also provide numerical examples that illustrate the results.

Correlations play a pivotal role in various fields of science, particularly in quantum mechanics, yet their proper quantification remains a subject of debate. In this work, we aimed to discuss the challenge of defining a reliable measure of total correlations. We first outlined the essential properties that an effective correlation measure should satisfy and reviewed existing measures, including quantum mutual information, the -norm of the correlation matrix, and the recently defined quantum Pearson correlation coefficient.

Sparsity measures are commonly utilized as health indicators for machine condition monitoring. Recently, with the assistance of Box-Cox transformation, kurtosis and negative entropy have been smoothly extended to form Box-Cox sparsity measures (BCSMs). However, traditional BCSMs do not generate sparsity measures that outperform negative entropy, which means it is meaningless to some extent.

In this study, the topological properties of the shallow seismicity occurring in the area around the Lai Chau hydropower plant (Vietnam) are investigated by using visibility graph (VG) analysis, a well-known method to convert time series into networks or graphs. The relationship between the seismicity and reservoir water level was analyzed using Interlayer Mutual Information (IMI) and the Frobenius norm, both applied to the corresponding VG networks. IMI was used to assess the correlation between the two variables, while the Frobenius norm was employed to estimate the time delay between them.

This paper introduces a novel approach that combines symbolic data analysis with matrix theory through the concept of interval-valued random matrices. This framework is designed to address the complexities of real-world data, offering enhanced statistical modeling techniques particularly suited for large and complex datasets where traditional methods may be inadequate. We develop both frequentist and Bayesian methods for the statistical inference of interval-valued random matrices, providing a comprehensive analytical framework.

Interval-valued linguistic neutrosophic sets (IVLNSs), Z-numbers, and the trapezium cloud model are powerful tools for expressing uncertainty and randomness. This paper aims to combine these methodologies. First, we review relevant concepts and operators, introducing a novel combination of IVLNSs and Z-numbers, which establishes a new form of expression.
