Kullback-Leibler Divergence and Mutual Information of Experiments in the Fuzzy Case

The main aim of this contribution is to define the notions of Kullback-Leibler divergence and conditional mutual information in fuzzy probability spaces and to derive the basic properties of the suggested measures. In particular, chain rules for mutual information of fuzzy partitions and for Kullback-Leibler divergence with respect to fuzzy P-measures are established. In addition, a convexity o...

Information Graphs for Epidemiological Applications of the Kullback-Leibler Divergence

Dear Editor, The topic addressed by this brief communication is the quantification of diagnostic information and, in particular, a method of illustrating graphically the quantification of diagnostic information for binary tests. To begin, consider the following outline procedure for development of such a test. An appropriate indicator variable that will serve as a proxy for the actual variable ...

Rényi Divergence and Kullback-Leibler Divergence

Rényi divergence is related to Rényi entropy much like Kullback-Leibler divergence is related to Shannon’s entropy, and comes up in many settings. It was introduced by Rényi as a measure of information that satisfies almost the same axioms as Kullback-Leibler divergence, and depends on a parameter that is called its order. In particular, the Rényi divergence of order 1 equals the Kullback-Leibl...
