Abstract

Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Fluids & Plasmas Physics, Mathematical Science & Technology
The algorithmic complexity of a symbol sequence is sensitive to the length of the message. Additionally, in those cases where the sequence is constructed by the symbolic reduction of an experimentally observed wave form, the corresponding value of algorithmic complexity is also sensitive to the sampling frequency. In this contribution, we present definitions of algorithmic redundancy that are sequence-sensitive generalizations of Shannon's original definition of information redundancy. In contrast with algorithmic complexity, we demonstrate that algorithmic redundancy is not sensitive to message length or to observation scale (sampling frequency) when stationary systems are examined.
