The Kullback-Leibler Divergence Class in Decoding the Chest Sound Pattern [PDF]

open access: yesInformatică economică, 2019
Kullback-Leibler Divergence Class or relative entropy is a special case of broader divergence. It represents a calculation of how one probability distribution diverges from another one, expected probability distribution. Kullback-Leibler divergence has a

Kullback-Leibler Divergence and Mutual Information of Experiments in the Fuzzy Case

open access: yesAxioms, 2017
The main aim of this contribution is to define the notions of Kullback-Leibler divergence and conditional mutual information in fuzzy probability spaces and to derive the basic properties of the suggested measures.

Divergence Measure of Belief Function and Its Application in Data Fusion

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
Divergence measure is widely used in many applications. To efficiently deal with uncertainty in real applications, basic probability assignment (BPA) in Dempster-Shafer evidence theory, instead of probability distribution, is adopted.

Some Order Preserving Inequalities for Cross Entropy and Kullback–Leibler Divergence [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
Cross entropy and Kullback⁻Leibler (K-L) divergence are fundamental quantities of information theory, and they are widely used in many fields. Since cross entropy is the negated logarithm of likelihood, minimizing cross entropy is equivalent to ...

Kullback–Leibler Divergence and Mutual Information of Partitions in Product MV Algebras

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
The purpose of the paper is to introduce, using the known results concerning the entropy in product MV algebras, the concepts of mutual information and Kullback–Leibler divergence for the case of product MV algebras and examine algebraic properties of ...

Statistical Divergences between Densities of Truncated Exponential Families with Nested Supports: Duo Bregman and Duo Jensen Divergences

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
By calculating the Kullback–Leibler divergence between two probability measures belonging to different exponential families dominated by the same measure, we obtain a formula that generalizes the ordinary Fenchel–Young divergence.

Parameter Estimation Based on Cumulative Kullback–Leibler Divergence

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal, 2021
In this paper, we propose some estimators for the parameters of a statistical model based on Kullback–Leibler divergence of the survival function in continuous setting and apply it to type I censored data.

Statistical Estimation of the Kullback–Leibler Divergence

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
Asymptotic unbiasedness and L2-consistency are established, under mild conditions, for the estimates of the Kullback–Leibler divergence between two probability measures in Rd, absolutely continuous with respect to (w.r.t.) the Lebesgue measure.

On Voronoi Diagrams on the Information-Geometric Cauchy Manifolds

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
We study the Voronoi diagrams of a finite set of Cauchy distributions and their dual complexes from the viewpoint of information geometry by considering the Fisher-Rao distance, the Kullback-Leibler divergence, the chi square divergence, and a flat ...
