Information Measures via Copula Functions
In applications of differential geometry to problems of parametric inference, the notion of divergence is often used to measure the separation between two parametric densities. Among them, in this paper, we will verify measures such as Kullback-Leibler information, J-divergence, Hellinger distance, -Divergence, … and so on. Properties and results related to distance between probability d...
متن کاملMutual information is copula entropy
In information theory, mutual information (MI) is a difference concept with entropy.[1] In this paper, we prove with copula [2] that they are essentially same – mutual information is also a kind of entropy, called copula entropy. Based on this insightful result, We propose a simple method for estimating mutual information. Copula is a theory on dependence and measurement of association.[2] Skla...
متن کاملCopula Variational Bayes inference via information geometry
Variational Bayes (VB), also known as independent mean-field approximation, has become a popular method for Bayesian network inference in recent years. Its application is vast, e.g. in neural network, compressed sensing, clustering, etc. to name just a few. In this paper, the independence constraint in VB will be relaxed to a conditional constraint class, called copula in statistics. Since a jo...
متن کاملAn information theoretic approach to statistical dependence: copula information
We discuss the connection between information and copula theories by showing that a copula can be employed to decompose the information content of a multivariate distribution into marginal and dependence components, with the latter quantified by the mutual information. We define the information excess as a measure of deviation from a maximum entropy distribution. The idea of marginal invariant ...
متن کاملOn the censored cost-effectiveness analysis using copula information
BACKGROUND Information and theory beyond copula concepts are essential to understand the dependence relationship between several marginal covariates distributions. In a therapeutic trial data scheme, most of the time, censoring occurs. That could lead to a biased interpretation of the dependence relationship between marginal distributions. Furthermore, it could result in a biased inference of t...
