چکیده

Rényi entropy of order α is a general measure of entropy. In this paper we derive estimations for the Rényi entropy of the mixture of sources in terms of the entropy of the single sources. These relations allow to compute the Rényi entropy dimension of arbitrary order of a mixture of measures. The key for obtaining these results is our new definition of the weighted Rényi entropy. It is shown that weighted entropy is equal to the classical Rényi entropy.

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...

The Rate of Rényi Entropy for Irreducible Markov Chains

In this paper, we obtain the Rényi entropy rate for irreducible-aperiodic Markov chains with countable state space, using the theory of countable nonnegative matrices. We also obtain the bound for the rate of Rényi entropy of an irreducible Markov chain. Finally, we show that the bound for the Rényi entropy rate is the Shannon entropy rate.

Weighted Approach to General Entropy Function

The definition of weighted entropy allows for easy calculation of the entropy of the mixture of measures. In this paper we investigate the problem of equivalent definition of the general entropy function in weighted form. We show that under reasonable condition, which is satisfied by the well-known Shannon, Rényi and Tsallis entropies, every entropy function can be defined equivalently in the w...

WEIGHTED k-NN GRAPHS FOR RÉNYI ENTROPY ESTIMATION IN HIGH DIMENSIONS

Rényi entropy is an information-theoretic measure of randomness which is fundamental to several applications. Several estimators of Rényi entropy based on k-nearest neighbor (kNN) based distances have been proposed in literature. For d-dimensional densities f , the variance of these Rényi entropy estimators of f decay as O(M), whereM is the sample size drawn from f . On the other hand, the bias...

A Framework for Optimal Attribute Evaluation and Selection in Hesitant Fuzzy Environment Based on Enhanced Ordered Weighted Entropy Approach for Medical Dataset

Background: In this paper, a generic hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) model for clustering various ECG beats according to weights of attributes is proposed. A comprehensive review of the electrocardiogram signal classification and segmentation methodologies indicates that algorithms which are able to effectively handle the nonstationary and uncertainty of the signals should be used for ECG analysis. Ex...
