On the Jensen–Shannon Symmetrization of Distances Relying on Abstract Means

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
The Jensen–Shannon divergence is a renowned bounded symmetrization of the unbounded Kullback–Leibler divergence which measures the total Kullback–Leibler divergence to the average mixture distribution.

Algorithms for Nonnegative Matrix Factorization with the Kullback–Leibler Divergence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Scientific Computing, 2021
Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) is a standard linear dimensionality reduction technique for nonnegative data sets. In order to measure the discrepancy between the input data and the low-rank approximation, the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence is one of the most widely used objective function for NMF.

Rényi Divergence and Kullback-Leibler Divergence

open access: yes, 2013
Accepted by IEEE Transactions on Information Theory. To appear.Rényi divergence is related to Rényi entropy much like Kullback-Leibler divergence is related to Shannon's entropy, and comes up in many settings.

Fault-tolerant relative navigation based on Kullback–Leibler divergence

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2020
A fault-detection method for relative navigation based on Kullback–Leibler divergence (KLD) is proposed. Different from the traditional χ 2 -based approaches, the KLD for a filter is following a hybrid distribution that combines χ 2 distribution and F ...

Zipf–Mandelbrot law, f-divergences and the Jensen-type interpolating inequalities

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2018
Motivated by the method of interpolating inequalities that makes use of the improved Jensen-type inequalities, in this paper we integrate this approach with the well known Zipf–Mandelbrot law applied to various types of f-divergences and distances, such ...

Android Malware Detection Using Kullback-Leibler Divergence

open access: yesAdvances in Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence Journal, 2015
Many recent reports suggest that mareware applications cause high billing to victims by sending and receiving hidden SMS messages. Given that, there is a need to develop necessary technique to identify malicious SMS operations as well as differentiate ...

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.

Enhancing timbre model using MFCC and its time derivatives for music similarity estimation

open access: yes, 2012
One of the popular methods for content-based music similarity estimation is to model timbre with MFCC as a single multivariate Gaussian with full covariance matrix, then use symmetric Kullback-Leibler divergence.
