Rényi entropy and cauchy-schwartz mutual information applied to mifs-u variable selection algorithm: a comparative study

This paper approaches the algorithm of selection of variables named MIFS-U and presents an alternative method for estimating entropy and mutual information, "measures" that constitute the base of this selection algorithm. This method has, for foundation, the Cauchy-Schwartz quadratic mutua...
