Compensating Random Transition-Detection Blackouts in Markov Networks
Author(s): Alexander M. Maier, Benjamin Häsler, and Udo Seifert
In Markov networks, measurement blackouts with unknown frequency compromise observations such that thermodynamic quantities can no longer be inferred reliably. In particular, the observed currents neither discern equilibrium from nonequilibrium nor can they be used in extant estimators of entropy pr… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 136, 247101] Published Tue Jun 16, 2026
