arXiv:2604. 23716v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Information-theoretic (IT) measures are ubiquitous in artificial intelligence: entropy drives decision-tree splits and uncertainty quantification, cross-entropy is the default classification loss, mutual information underpins representation learning and feature selection, and transfer entropy reveals directed influence in dynamical systems.

The paper introduces a pragmatic information theory that unifies communication, control, and decision-making through the isoteleia mapping, which formalizes equifinality by treating distinct semantic paths that lead to the same optimal action as pragmatically equivalent. It establishes a three-tier hierarchy of syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic information, defines pragmatic entropy, mutual information, channel capacity, and rate-distortion, and proves coding theorems that generalize Shannon’s results. The authors also present pragmatic value and cost of information, a Lagrangian dual framework for cross-layer optimization, and a pragmatic efficiency bound that quantifies the maximum net utility for resource-constrained intelligent systems, extending the theory to continuous messages and dynamic settings.
