Elements of Generalized Tsallis Relative Entropy in Classical Information Theory

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: This article proposes a modification in the Sharma-Mittal entropy and distinguishes it as generalised Tsallis entropy. This modification accomplish the Sharma-Mittal entropy to be used in classical information theory. We derive a product rule (xy)^{r + k} ln_{{k,r}}(xy) = x^{r + k} ln_{{k,r}}(x) + y^{r + k} ln_{{k,r}}(y) + 2k x^{r + k} y^{r + k} ln_{{k,r}}(x)ln_{{k,r}}(y), for the two-parameter deformed logarithm lnk,r(x)=xrfracxk−x−k2k. It assists us to derive a number of information theoretic properties of the generalized Tsallis entropy, and related entropy. They include the sub-additive property, strong sub-additive property, joint convexity, and information monotonicity. This article is an exposit investigation on the information-theoretic, and information-geometric characteristics of generalized Tsallis entropy.
