Specific neuropsychiatric symptoms are associated with functional decline trajectories in Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia: a five-year follow-up study

Abstract

Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are often overlooked and under-identified symptoms associated with dementia, despite their significant impact on the prognosis of individuals living with the disease. The specific role of certain NPS in functional prognosis remains unclear.

Informational predictability, and an application to the intensity of high-resolution temporal rainfall

Abstract
In an effort to solidly define predictability, and the estimation thereof, in different processes, and considering the interpretation of mutual information as an expected value of the logarithm of joint probability, we show that, in the light of causality, the expected value of the logarithm of conditional probability fulfills the desirable properties of a predictability descriptor. An application to high-resolution rainfall intensity time series is presented.
