An Introduction to the Science of Information Transfer, Uncertainty, and a Personal View of Organizational Intelligence.

ABSTRACT: An introduction to the concepts of entropy, information transfer, and the uncertainty in transfer of information is given. The specific target is information transfer in voice and speech. The entropies of a square wave, a sinusoid, and a sawtooth are calculated because these waveshapes approximate information carriers in vocalization. This is followed by a less-known concept that the increase of organizational intelligence gleaned from physical systems is proportional to the gradient of entropy. That leads to a multi-dimensional interpretation of diversity. Finally, a personal meta-physical extension is made to a universal reservoir of intelligence from which species can draw to advance civilizations.
