Dimension-Free Empirical Entropy Estimation

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2023
We seek an entropy estimator for discrete distributions with fully empirical accuracy bounds. As stated, this goal is infeasible without some prior assumptions on the distribution. We discover that a certain information moment assumption renders the problem feasible. We argue that the moment assumption is natural and, in some sense, {\em minimalistic} -

Empirical entropy, minimax regret and minimax risk [PDF]

open access: yesBernoulli, 2017
We consider the random design regression model with square loss. We propose a method that aggregates empirical minimizers (ERM) over appropriately chosen random subsets and reduces to ERM in the extreme case, and we establish sharp oracle inequalities for its risk. We show that, under the $\varepsilon^{-p}$ growth of the empirical $\varepsilon$-entropy,

Convergence of Smoothed Empirical Measures With Applications to Entropy Estimation [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2020
This paper studies convergence of empirical measures smoothed by a Gaussian kernel. Specifically, consider approximating $P\ast\mathcal{N}_σ$, for $\mathcal{N}_σ\triangleq\mathcal{N}(0,σ^2 \mathrm{I}_d)$, by $\hat{P}_n\ast\mathcal{N}_σ$, where $\hat{P}_n$ is the empirical measure, under different statistical distances.

Entropy conditions for L r -convergence of empirical processes [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Computational Mathematics, 2008
Let \(P_n\) be the empirical measure for a sample of \(n\) independent random elements with joint distribution \(P\). Furthermore, let \({\mathcal F}\) be a class of real-valued (bounded) functions defined on the sample space. Then it is known that \(\sup_{f\in {\mathcal F}}|P_nf - Pf| \to 0\) almost surely provided that \({\mathcal F}\) admits a ...

Entropy Generation through Deterministic Spiral Structures in a Corner Boundary-Layer Flow

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
It is shown that nonlinear interactions between boundary layers on adjacent corner surfaces produce deterministic stream wise spiral structures. The synchronization properties of nonlinear spectral velocity equations of Lorenz form yield clearly defined ...

Entropy-based analysis and bioinformatics-inspired integration of global economic information transfer. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The assessment of information transfer in the global economic network helps to understand the current environment and the outlook of an economy. Most approaches on global networks extract information transfer based mainly on a single variable. This paper

Sublimation Study of Six 5-Substituted-1,10-Phenanthrolines by Knudsen Effusion Mass Loss and Solution Calorimetry

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
The vapor pressures of six solid 5-X-1,10-phenanthrolines (where X = Cl, CH3, CN, OCH3, NH2, NO2) were determined in suitable temperature ranges by Knudsen Effusion Mass Loss (KEML).

A New Odd Beta Prime-Burr X Distribution with Applications to Petroleum Rock Sample Data and COVID-19 Mortality Rate

open access: yesData, 2023
In this article, we pioneer a new Burr X distribution using the odd beta prime generalized (OBP-G) family of distributions called the OBP-Burr X (OBPBX) distribution.
