Explicación de Entropía en el contexto de la neurociencia
Brain activity can be characterized by its level of order and predictability, which correlates with entropy. When brain activity is highly ordered and predictable, it reflects low entropy, allowing for accurate predictions of future activity based on current observations. Conversely, as brain activity becomes more disordered and less predictable, it signifies higher entropy, resulting in reduced ability to forecast subsequent activity from earlier samples. This relationship between order, predictability, and entropy provides insight into the dynamics of brain functions and their varying states.
