Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we construct the unified theory of information and thermodynamics called information thermodynamics as a fundamental theory of biological information processing. We have derived the generalization of the Onsager reciprocal relation with information flow and the second law of thermodynamics in terms of the Granger causality. We have also derived a thermodynamic uncertainty relationship between thermodynamic cost and the speed from a view point of information geometry, that is a differential geometry of information theory. Our result is generally useful to understand the biological sensory adaptation and the enzyme reaction quantitatively.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究成果は、情報理論と熱力学の融合理論である情報熱力学を発展させ、生体内のシグナル伝達の定量的な理解に役立てるための理論的な基盤を作ることである。この研究の発展によって、生体内で伝達される情報について熱力学的なコストとの関係から定量的に理解が可能となる。この研究の方向性は、低エネルギーコストで効率的な生体システムの理解に役立ち、工学的な実装の礎になると考えている。
