reldist-internal function

Internal reldist Objects

Internal reldist functions.

entropy(x,xo=FALSE)

Details

Most of these are not to be called by the user.

Arguments

• x: a list with components x and y. The vector y are the relative density estimates at the values in the vector x. The latter are in the unit interval.
• xo: a list with components x and y like the first argument. If given the relative entropy (or Kullback-Liebler divergence) of the first to the second argument is calculated.

Returns

If xo is given, the relative entropy (or Kullback-Liebler divergence) of the first to the second argument is calculated. Otherwise the entropy of the distribution specified by x.
