(A) Independent entropy per neuron, , in black, and the entropy of the K-pairwise models per neuron, , in red, as a function of N. Dashed lines are fits from (B). (B) Independent entropy scales linearly with N (black dashed line). Multi-information of the K-pairwise models is shown in dark red. Dashed red line is a best quadratic fit for dependence of on ; this can be rewritten as , where γ(N) (shown in inset) is the effective scaling of multi-information with system size N. In both panels, error bars are s.d. over 30 subnetworks at each size N.
