conditionalShannonEntropy {SCCI}

Conditional Shannon Entropy

Description

Calculates the Shannon entropy of a discrete random variable X conditioned on a discrete (possibly multivariate) random variable Y.

Usage

conditionalShannonEntropy(x, y)	

Arguments

x

A discrete vector.

y

A data frame.

Examples

set.seed(1)
x = round((runif(1000, min=0, max=5)))
Y = data.frame(round((runif(1000, min=0, max=5))), round((runif(1000, min=0, max=5))))
