• Does information increase in computation?question0.943
  Fundamental puzzle motivating the paper: how can computation produce new information when output is logically implied by input and thermodynamics suggests information cannot increase?
• Information increase in computation arises from data reduction and making implicit information explicit, not logical increase.claim0.870
  Author's proposed resolution to the information increase paradox: computation gains utility through extraction and filtering, not creation of logically new content.
• Information increase in computation is observer-dependent, relative to the computational direction chosen.claim0.845
  Extension of information dynamics: direction of information increase (e.g., forward multiplication vs. reverse factorization) depends on observer's goals.
• Information can increase in computation only relative to subsystems and observersclaim0.841
  The author argues that while total system information is conserved (thermodynamic), computation gains information for the observer by making implicit information explicit and discarding irrelevant data.
• How can information increase in computation if output is logically implied by input?question0.836
• The direction of information increase is relative to the observer or user of the computationclaim0.812
  Example: 3×5→15 is a natural computation, but 15→3×5 (prime factorization) is also useful, showing that the 'gain' depends on the choice of normal form.
• Information flow and increase must be understood relative to subsystems and their interaction with environment.claim0.793
• Information Gainconcept0.776
  Reduction in uncertainty about hidden states or parameters, driving exploration.
