Distinguishing the Leading Agents in Classification Problems Using the Entropy-Based Metric
1Department of Industrial Engineering, Ariel University, Ariel 4076414, Israel.
Abstract:
The paper addresses the problem of distinguishing the leading agents in the group. The problem is considered in the framework of classification problems, where the agents in the group select the items with respect to certain properties. The suggested method of distinguishing the leading agents utilizes the connectivity between the agents and the Rokhlin distance between the subgroups of the agents. The method is illustrated by numerical examples. The method can be useful in considering the division of labor in swarm dynamics and in the analysis of the data fusion in the tasks based on the wisdom of the crowd techniques.

Classification of Systems-I
Homogeneity dictates that if an input x(t) is multiplied by a constant c, the output y(t) is multiplied by the same constant. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

Entropy and the Second Law of Thermodynamics
The relation between entropy and disorder can be illustrated with the example of the phase change of ice to water. In ice, the molecules are located at specific sites giving a solid state, whereas, in a liquid form, these molecules are much freer to move. The molecular arrangement has therefore become more randomized. Although the change in average...
