statsmodels.sandbox.distributions.transformed.ExpTransf_gen.entropy¶
- ExpTransf_gen.entropy(*args, **kwds)¶
Differential entropy of the RV.
- Parameters:¶
- arg1, arg2, arg3,…array_like
The shape parameter(s) for the distribution (see docstring of the instance object for more information).
- locarray_like,
optional
Location parameter (default=0).
- scalearray_like,
optional
(continuous
distributions
only
). Scale parameter (default=1).
Notes
Entropy is defined base e:
>>> import numpy as np >>> from scipy.stats._distn_infrastructure import rv_discrete >>> drv = rv_discrete(values=((0, 1), (0.5, 0.5))) >>> np.allclose(drv.entropy(), np.log(2.0)) True
