A Note on the Relationship of the Shannon Entropy Procedure and the Jensen–Shannon Divergence in Cognitive Diagnostic Computerized Adaptive Testing

open access: yesSAGE Open, 2020
The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the Shannon entropy procedure and the Jensen–Shannon divergence (JSD) that are used as item selection criteria in cognitive diagnostic computerized adaptive testing (CD-CAT).

ON THE JENSEN-SHANNON DIVERGENCE AND THE VARIATION DISTANCE FOR CATEGORICAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
We establish a decomposition of the Jensen-Shannon divergence into a linear combination of a scaled Jeffreys' divergence and a reversed Jensen-Shannon divergence.

Discrete Versions of Jensen–Fisher, Fisher and Bayes–Fisher Information Measures of Finite Mixture Distributions

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
In this work, we first consider the discrete version of Fisher information measure and then propose Jensen–Fisher information, to develop some associated results.

Quantifying the Dissimilarity of Texts

open access: yesInformation, 2023
Quantifying the dissimilarity of two texts is an important aspect of a number of natural language processing tasks, including semantic information retrieval, topic classification, and document clustering.

Refined Young Inequality and Its Application to Divergences

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
We give bounds on the difference between the weighted arithmetic mean and the weighted geometric mean. These imply refined Young inequalities and the reverses of the Young inequality. We also studied some properties on the difference between the weighted

Natural history of liver disease in a large international cohort of children with Alagille syndrome: Results from the GALA study

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Natural history of liver disease in a large international cohort of children with Alagille syndrome: Results from the GALA study. Abstract Background and Aims Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a multisystem disorder, characterized by cholestasis. Existing outcome data are largely derived from tertiary centers, and real‐world data are lacking.

A method for continuous-range sequence analysis with Jensen-Shannon divergence

open access: yesPapers in Physics, 2021
Mutual Information (MI) is a useful Information Theory tool for the recognition of mutual dependence between data sets. Several methods have been developed fore estimation of MI when both data sets are of the discrete type or when both are of the ...

The Representation Jensen-Shannon Divergence

open access: yes, 2023
Quantifying the difference between probability distributions is crucial in machine learning. However, estimating statistical divergences from empirical samples is challenging due to unknown underlying distributions. This work proposes the representation Jensen-Shannon divergence (RJSD), a novel measure inspired by the traditional Jensen-Shannon ...

On the Jensen–Shannon Divergence and Variational Distance [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2005
Summary: We study the distance measures between two probability distributions via two different distance metrics, a new metric induced from Jensen-Shannon divergence, and the well known \(L_1\)-metric. We show that several important results and constructions in computational complexity under the \(L_1\)-metric carry over to the new metric, such as Yao ...
