Pointwise Information Decomposition Using the Specificity and Ambiguity Lattices
What are the distinct ways in which a set of predictor variables can provide information about a target variable? When does a variable provide unique information, when do variables share redundant information, and when do variables combine to provide complementary information? The redundancy lattice from the partial information decomposition of Williams and Beer provided a promising glimpse at ...
متن کاملThe Partial Entropy Decomposition: Decomposing multivariate entropy and mutual information via pointwise common surprisal
Obtaining meaningful quantitative descriptions of the statistical dependence within multivariate systems is a difficult open problem. Recently, the Partial Information Decomposition (PID) was proposed to decompose mutual information (MI) about a target variable into components which are redundant, unique and synergistic within different subsets of predictor variables. Here, we propose to apply ...
متن کاملEarnings Announcement Premium and Information Ambiguity
In today's investment world there is emphasis on the role of accounting information. Behavioral factors always play an important role in financial markets. All investors are not rational and their demand for riskiness of assets is influenced by their beliefs and feelings. Optimism, pessimism, self-confidence, ambiguity-aversion, etc. help changing the manner of decision-making process over time...
متن کاملBivariate Partial Information Decomposition: The Optimization Perspective
Bertschinger, Rauh, Olbrich, Jost, and Ay (Entropy, 2014) have proposed a definition of a decomposition of the mutual information MI(X : Y, Z) into shared, synergistic, and unique information by way of solving a convex optimization problem. In this paper, we discuss the solution of their Convex Program from theoretical and practical points of view.
متن کاملCrisp Boundary Detection Using Pointwise Mutual Information
Detecting boundaries between semantically meaningful objects in visual scenes is an important component of many vision algorithms. In this paper, we propose a novel method for detecting such boundaries based on a simple underlying principle: pixels belonging to the same object exhibit higher statistical dependencies than pixels belonging to different objects. We show how to derive an affinity m...
