DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/MPML/106/">I
 nformation geometry for nonequilibrium processes</a>\nby Artemy Kolchinsky
  (Universal Biology Institute\, University of Tokyo) as part of Mathematic
 s\, Physics and Machine Learning (IST\, Lisbon)\n\n\nAbstract\nRecently\, 
 there has been dramatic progress in nonequilibrium thermodynamics\, with d
 iverse applications in biological and chemical systems. The central quanti
 ty of interest in the field is “entropy production” (EP)\, which refle
 cts the increase of the entropy of a system and its environment. Major que
 stions of interest include (1) quantitative tradeoffs between EP and perfo
 rmance measures like speed and precision\, (2) inference of EP from data\,
  and (3) decomposition of EP into contributions from different sources of 
 dissipation. In this work\, we study the thermodynamics of nonequilibrium 
 processes by considering the information geometry of fluxes. Our approach 
 can be seen as a dynamical generalization of existing work on the informat
 ion geometry of probability distributions considered at a given instant in
  time. It is applicable to a broad range of nonequilibrium processes\, inc
 luding nonlinear ones that exhibit oscillations and/or chaos\, and it has 
 implications for thermodynamic tradeoffs\, thermodynamic inference\, and d
 ecompositions of EP. As one application\, we derive a universal decomposit
 ion of EP into “excess” and “housekeeping” contributions\, represe
 nting contributions from nonstationarity and cyclic fluxes respectively.\n
