New framework dualizes Kolmogorov structure function, linking information theory and statistical mechanics

Researchers have developed a new framework for dualizing the Kolmogorov structure function, enabling the use of computable complexity proxies. This work establishes a mathematical analogy between information theory and statistical mechanics, introducing a partition function and free energy functional. The study demonstrates a Legendre-Fenchel duality between the structure function and free energy, interpreting acceptance probabilities as information-theoretic scattering amplitudes and identifying phase transitions in model complexity at loss-complexity trade-offs. Experiments with linear and tree-based regression models have verified these theoretical predictions. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel theoretical framework for analyzing model complexity, potentially leading to more robust generalization and overfitting detection in AI models.
