Researchers have introduced a new framework called "Shannon observables" to better understand how complex systems, including biological and artificial neural networks, process information. This approach uses Shannon entropies to create scalable metrics that can analyze high-order information processing, overcoming limitations of existing multivariate measures. The framework has demonstrated versatility in analyzing error-correcting codes, deep learning models like classifiers and autoencoders, and even human brain activity from magnetoencephalography recordings, revealing distinct information transfer patterns.
