Information geometric techniques and inductive inference methods hold great
promise for solving computational problems of interest in classical and quantum
physics, especially with regard to complexity characterization of dynamical
systems in terms of their probabilistic description on curved statistical
manifolds. In this article, we investigate the possibility of describing the
macroscopic behavior of complex systems in terms of the underlying statistical
structure of their microscopic degrees of freedom by use of statistical
inductive inference and information geometry. We review the Maximum Relative
Entropy (MrE) formalism and the theoretical structure of the information
geometrodynamical approach to chaos (IGAC) on statistical manifolds. Special
focus is devoted to the description of the roles played by the sectional
curvature, the Jacobi field intensity and the information geometrodynamical
entropy (IGE). These quantities serve as powerful information geometric
complexity measures of information-constrained dynamics associated with
arbitrary chaotic and regular systems defined on the statistical manifold.
Finally, the application of such information geometric techniques to several
theoretical models are presented.
