Note 1 to entry: The two events are particularly a message at the message source of a channel and a message at the message sink of the channel.

Note 2 to entry: The transinformation content can also be expressed as: T(x,y)=I( x )+I( y )I( x,y )MathType@MTEF@5@5@+= feaagKart1ev2aqatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbbjxAHX garuavP1wzZbItLDhis9wBH5garmWu51MyVXgaruWqVvNCPvMCG4uz 3bqee0evGueE0jxyaibaiGc9aspC0FXdbbc9asFfpec8Eeeu0lXdbb a9frFj0xb9Lqpepeea0xd9s8qiYRWxGi6xij=hbba9q8aq0=yq=He9 q8qiLsFr0=vr0=vr0db8meaabaGacmaadiWaaiWabaabaiaafaaake aajugibiaadsfacaGGOaGaamiEaiaacYcacaWG5bGaaiykaiabg2da 9iaadMeaomaabmaakeaajugibiaadIhaaOGaayjkaiaawMcaaKqzGe Gaey4kaSIaamysa4WaaeWaaOqaaKqzGeGaamyEaaGccaGLOaGaayzk aaqcLbsacqGHsislcaWGjbGddaqadaGcbaqcLbsacaWG4bGaaiilai aadMhaaOGaayjkaiaawMcaaaaa@5424@ , where I(y) is the information content of the event y.
