BanburismusBanburismus was a process invented and operated by Alan Turing at Bletchley Park during the Second World War. The details are currently classified by the UK government, but it was an codebreaking procedure which used an early form of Bayesian networks to infer information about the settings of the Enigma machine. It gave rise to Turing's conception of information, measures in bans — roughly the same concept as Shannon entropy. The name derives from the town of Banbury, where sheets used in the procedure were manufactured. External links
