Potential Statistical Evidence in Experiments and Renyi Information
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Recently Habibi et al. (2006) defined a pre-experimental criterion for the potential strength of evidence provided by an experiment, based on Kullback-Leibler distance. In this paper, we investigate the potential statistical evidence in an experiment in terms of Renyi distance and compare the potential statistical evidence in lower (upper) record values with that in the same number of iid observations from the same parent distribution.

Relations between Renyi Distance and Fisher Information
In this paper, we first show that Renyi distance between any member of a parametric family and its perturbations, is proportional to its Fisher information. We, then, prove some relations between the Renyi distance of two distributions and the Fisher information of their exponentially twisted family of densities. Finally, we show that the partial ordering of families induced by Renyi dis...
متن کاملShannon Entropy , Renyi Entropy , and Information
This memo contains proofs that the Shannon entropy is the limiting case of both the Renyi entropy and the Tsallis entropy, or information. These results are also confirmed experimentally. We conclude with some general observations on the utility of entropy measures. A brief summary of the origins of the concept of physical entropy are provided in an appendix.

متن کاملConvexity/concavity of renyi entropy and α-mutual information
Entropy is well known to be Schur concave on finite alphabets. Recently, the authors have strengthened the result by showing that for any pair of probability distributions P and Q with Q majorized by P , the entropy of Q is larger than the entropy of P by the amount of relative entropy D(P ||Q). This result applies to P and Q defined on countable alphabets. This paper shows the counterpart of t...

15 صفحه اولShrouded Attributes and Information Suppression: Evidence from Field Experiments
The recent theoretical literature suggests that consumer myopia may lead firms to profitably suppress or shroud some attributes of the price. Empirical and experimental data also suggest that sellers gain by transferring a larger fraction of the price to the shrouded attributes. However, alternative theories, including mental accounting, could also explain these framing effects. Using field exp...
