Uncertainty relations and fluctuation theorems for Bayes nets

Published 7 Nov 2019 in cond-mat.stat-mech, cs.LG, and stat.ML | (1911.02700v5)

Abstract: Recent research has considered the stochastic thermodynamics of multiple interacting systems, representing the overall system as a Bayes net. I derive fluctuation theorems governing the entropy production (EP)of arbitrary sets of the systems in such a Bayes net. I also derive ``conditional'' fluctuation theorems, governing the distribution of EP in one set of systems conditioned on the EP of a different set of systems. I then derive thermodynamic uncertainty relations relating the EP of the overall system to the precisions of probability currents within the individual systems.
