By a "covering" we mean a Gaussian mixture model fit to observed data. Approximations of the Bayes factor can be availed of to judge model fit to the data within a given Gaussian mixture model. Between families of Gaussian mixture models,…
Universal hash functions map the output of a source to random strings over a finite alphabet, aiming to approximate the uniform distribution on the set of strings. A classic result on these functions, called the Leftover Hash Lemma, gives…

In this paper we examine the average R\'{e}nyi entropy $S_{\alpha}$ of a subsystem $A$ when the whole composite system $AB$ is a random pure state. We assume that the Hilbert space dimensions of $A$ and $AB$ are $m$ and $m n$ respectively.…

Sharpness (of the loss minima) is a common measure to investigate the generalization of neural networks. Intuitively speaking, the flatter the landscape near the minima is, the better generalization might be. Unfortunately, the correlation…
Atar, Chowdhary and Dupuis have recently exhibited a variational formula for exponential integrals of bounded measurable functions in terms of R\'enyi divergences. We develop a variational characterization of the R\'enyi divergences between…
We prove a tight uniform continuity bound for Arimoto's version of the conditional $\alpha$-R\'enyi entropy, for the range $\alpha \in [0, 1)$. This definition of the conditional R\'enyi entropy is the most natural one among the multiple…
The entropy is a measure of uncertainty that plays a central role in information theory. When the distribution of the data is unknown, an estimate of the entropy needs be obtained from the data sample itself. We propose a semi-parametric…
We propose a new way of defining entropy of a system, which gives a general form which may be nonextensive as Tsallis entropy, but is linearly dependent on component entropies, like Renyi entropy, which is extensive. This entropy has a…
