Usage

mi_disc_bi(X, Y, log = "log2", normalize = FALSE)

Arguments

X

Integer vector.

Y

Integer vector.

log

String argument in the set ("log2", "loge","log10"), which indicates the log function to use. The log2 is used by default.

normalize

Logical argument (FALSE by default) for the option of normalizing the mutual information by dividing it by the joint entropy.

Details

Computes the Mutual Information between two integer vectors.

Examples

library (NlinTS)
mi = mi_disc_bi (c(3,2,4,4,3), c(1,4,4,3,3))
print (mi)
