Entropy and Divergence Associated with Power Function and the Statistical Application
In statistical physics, Boltzmann-Shannon entropy provides good understanding for the equilibrium states of a number of phenomena. In statistics, the entropy corresponds to the maximum likelihood method, in which Kullback-Leibler divergence connects Boltzmann-Shannon entropy and the expected log-lik...
