Quantum Skew Divergence

چکیده

In this paper we study the quantum generalisation of the skew divergence, which is a dissimilarity measure between distributions introduced by L. Lee in the context of natural language processing. We provide an in-depth study of the quantum skew divergence, including its relation to other state distinguishability measures. Finally, we present a number of important applications: new continuity inequalities for the quantum Jensen-Shannon divergence and the Holevo information, and a new and short proof of Bravyi’s Small Incremental Mixing conjecture.

Introduction to quantum Fisher information

The subject of this paper is a mathematical transition from the Fisher information of classical statistics to the matrix formalism of quantum theory. If the monotonicity is the main requirement, then there are several quantum versions parametrized by a function. In physical applications the minimal is the most popular. There is a one-to-one correspondence between Fisher informations (called als...

On the effectiveness of the skew divergence for statistical language analysis

Estimating word co-occurrence probabilities is a problem underlying many applications in statistical natural language processing. Distance-weighted (or similarityweighted) averaging has been shown to be a promising approach to the analysis of novel co-occurrences. Many measures of distributional similarity have been proposed for use in the distance-weighted averaging framework; here, we empiric...

Kullback-Leibler Divergence Measure for Multivariate Skew-Normal Distributions

The aim of this work is to provide the tools to compute the well-known Kullback–Leibler divergence measure for the flexible family of multivariate skew-normal distributions. In particular, we use the Jeffreys divergence measure to compare the multivariate normal distribution with the skew-multivariate normal distribution, showing that this is equivalent to comparing univariate versions of these...

On random walk simulation of one-dimensional di usion processes with discontinuous coe cients

In this paper, we provide a scheme for simulating one-dimensional processes generated by divergence or non-divergence form operators with discontinuous coe cients. We use a space bijection to transform such a process in another one that behaves locally like a Skew Brownian motion. Indeed the behavior of the Skew Brownian motion can easily be approached by an asymmetric random walk.

Identification of Cotton Diseases Based on Cross Information Gain_Deep Forward Neural Network Classifier with PSO Feature Selection

This work exposes the automatic computation system to analyse the cotton leaf spot diseases. First to initialize the images from the database (Image features) that are highly related to the test image (new image), where test image is given by the user. Three features are used for matching the train image features in database images, namely color feature variance, shape and texture feature varia...
