[agents] Entropy2020 Conference (Porto, May 2020)—Abstract Submission Deadline: 12 January 2020

[Hui Liu]

 Call for abstract: Entropy 2020: The Scientific Tool of the 21st Century

'Entropy 2020: The Scientific Tool of the 21st Century' will be held in
Porto, Portugal, on 6–8 May 2020. This conference will bring together
leading researchers from both academia and industry to share their recent
findings related to entropy. The concept of entropy initially emerges from
the scope of physics, but it is now clear that entropy is deeply related to
information theory and the process of inference. Today, entropic techniques
have found a broad spectrum of applications in all branches of science.
