Sommario/riassunto

One of the main issues in communications theory is measuring the ultimate data compression possible using the concept of entropy. While differential entropy may seem to be a simple extension of the discrete case, it is a more complex measure that often requires a more careful treatment.Handbook of Differential Entropy provides a comprehensive introduction to the subject for researchers and students in information theory. Unlike related books, this one brings together background material, derivations, and applications of differential entropy.The handbook

Extrait : ""On a toujours joué, on jouera toujours. Il faudrait maints in-octavo pour raconter l'histoire du jeu à travers les siècles. Depuis les soldats de Pilate qui tiraient aux dés les vêtements de Jésus-Christ, depuis Duguesclin qui perdait en prison la totalité de son bien, depuis Bassompierre qui sous Henri IV gagnait cinq cent mille livres d'un coup de cartes, depuis Mazarin, depuis Louis XV, la secte des joueurs a encore aujourd'hui le même nombre d'adeptes, ...""À PROPOS DES ÉDITIONS LIGARANLes éditions LIGARAN proposent des versions numériques de qualité de grands livres de la lit
