Abstract

A complex system is a system composed of many dynamic elements with mutual interactions. This paper proposes a unified approach for the design of an information processing system using a complex system. The method of design is based on the maximum entropy principle. After a detailed explanation, the proposed method is applied to the design of a spatial filter using a complex system.
