This toolbox contains functions for DISCRETE random variables to compute following quantities:
1)Entropy
2)Joint entropy
3)Conditional entropy
4)Relative entropy (KL divergence)
5)Mutual information
6)Normalized mutual information
7)Normalized variation information
This package is now a part of the PRML toolbox (http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/55826-pattern-recognition-and-machine-learning-toolbox).
