INFORMATION MATRIX AND APPLICATION*

This paper suggests a new framework, called information matrix, to illustrate a given sample for showing its information structure. The method of the information distribution is used to produce a more intelligent architecture, called primary information matrix. Then, without any assumption, we can construct a fuzzy relation matrix for fuzzy inference. To display the advantage of the new framework, in this paper, we use it to study the relationship between epicentre intensity, I 0, and earthquake magnitude, M. The result shows that the new model is better than the traditional regression model.
