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 handbookEntropyMathematical physicsEntropy.Mathematical physics.003.5401515352003/.5401515352Michalowicz Joseph Victor1598249Nichols Jonathan Michael1598250Bucholtz Frank1598251MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910815407803321Handbook of differential entropy3920351UNINA
