Contribution to Transfer Entropy Estimation via the k-Nearest-Neighbors Approach

This paper deals with the estimation of transfer entropy based on the k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) method. To this end, we first investigate the estimation of Shannon entropy involving a rectangular neighboring region, as suggested in already existing literature, and develop two kinds of entropy estim...
