Smooth Entropy and Rényi Entropy
The notion of smooth entropy allows a unifying, generalized formulation of privacy ampli-cation and entropy smoothing. Smooth entropy is a measure for the number of almost uniform random bits that can be extracted from a random source by probabilistic algorithms. It is known that the R enyi entropy of order at least 2 of a random variable is a lower bound for its smooth entropy. On the other ha...
متن کاملA 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...
متن کاملMaximum Rényi Entropy Rate
Two maximization problems of Rényi entropy rate are investigated: the maximization over all stochastic processes whose marginals satisfy a linear constraint, and the Burg-like maximization over all stochastic processes whose autocovariance function begins with some given values. The solutions are related to the solutions to the analogous maximization problems of Shannon entropy rate.
متن کاملEncoding Tasks and Rényi Entropy
A task is randomly drawn from a finite set of tasks and is described using a fixed number of bits. All the tasks that share its description must be performed. Upper and lower bounds on the minimum ρ-th moment of the number of performed tasks are derived. The case where a sequence of tasks is produced by a source and n tasks are jointly described using nR bits is considered. If R is larger than ...
متن کاملRényi Extrapolation of Shannon Entropy
Relations between Shannon entropy and Rényi entropies of integer order are discussed. For any N–point discrete probability distribution for which the Rényi entropies of order two and three are known, we provide an lower and an upper bound for the Shannon entropy. The average of both bounds provide an explicit extrapolation for this quantity. These results imply relations between the von Neumann...
