Algorithmic Information Theoryby Peter D. Gruenwald, Paul M.B. Vitanyi - CWI
We introduce algorithmic information theory, also known as the theory of Kolmogorov complexity. We explain this quantitative approach to defining information and discuss the extent to which Kolmogorov's and Shannon's theory have a common purpose.
