A relation between conditional entropy and conditional expectation to evaluate secrecy systems

چکیده

We demonstrate an intuitive relation between conditional entropy and conditional expectation that is useful when one want to compare them as measurement tools to evaluate secrecy systems. In particular, we give a Security Property applicable to general vector variables in , using measurement based on vector quadratic distance, and we show that one can derive variables that can be measured with Csiszàr and Körner secrecy capacity measurement [2], based on conditional entropy, with conserving the same order relation.

A Preferred Definition of Conditional Rényi Entropy

The Rényi entropy is a generalization of Shannon entropy to a one-parameter family of entropies. Tsallis entropy too is a generalization of Shannon entropy. The measure for Tsallis entropy is non-logarithmic. After the introduction of Shannon entropy , the conditional Shannon entropy was derived and its properties became known. Also, for Tsallis entropy, the conditional entropy was introduced a...

Efficient Simulation of a Random Knockout Tournament

We consider the problem of using simulation to efficiently estimate the win probabilities for participants in a general random knockout tournament. Both of our proposed estimators, one based on the notion of “observed survivals” and the other based on conditional expectation and post-stratification, are highly effective in terms of variance reduction when compared to the raw simulation estimato...

Tsallis Entropy and Conditional Tsallis Entropy of Fuzzy Partitions

The purpose of this study is to define the concepts of Tsallis entropy and conditional Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions and to obtain some results concerning this kind entropy. We show that the Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions has the subadditivity and concavity properties. We study this information measure under the refinement and zero mode subset relations. We check the chain rules for ...

CONDITIONAL EXPECTATION IN THE KOPKA'S D-POSETS

The notion of a $D$-poset was introduced in a connection withquantum mechanical models. In this paper, we introduce theconditional expectation of  random variables on theK^{o}pka's $D$-Poset and prove the basic properties ofconditional expectation on this  structure.

Some notes on L-projections on Fourier-Stieltjes algebras

In this paper, we investigate the relation between L-projections and conditional expectations on subalgebras of the Fourier Stieltjes algebra B(G), and we will show that compactness of G plays an important role in this relation.
