We study minimization of a parametric family of relative entropies, termed relative $alpha$-entropies (denoted $mathscr{I}_{alpha}(P,Q)$). These arise as redundancies under mismatched compression when cumulants of compressed lengths are considered instead of expected compressed lengths. These parametric relative entropies are a generalization of the usual relative entropy (Kullback-Leibler divergence). Just like relative entropy, these relative $alpha$-entropies behave like squared Euclidean distance and satisfy the Pythagorean property. Minimization of $mathscr{I}_{alpha}(P,Q)$ over the first argument on a set of probability distributions that constitutes a linear family is studied. Such a minimization generalizes the maximum R{e}nyi or Tsallis entropy principle. The minimizing probability distribution (termed $mathscr{I}_{alpha}$-projection) for a linear family is shown to have a power-law.
Minimization problems with respect to a one-parameter family of generalized relative entropies are studied. These relative entropies, which we term relative $alpha$-entropies (denoted $mathscr{I}_{alpha}$), arise as redundancies under mismatched comp
In part I of this two-part work, certain minimization problems based on a parametric family of relative entropies (denoted $mathscr{I}_{alpha}$) were studied. Such minimizers were called forward $mathscr{I}_{alpha}$-projections. Here, a complementary
Consider the set of all sequences of $n$ outcomes, each taking one of $m$ values, that satisfy a number of linear constraints. If $m$ is fixed while $n$ increases, most sequences that satisfy the constraints result in frequency vectors whose entropy
We introduce an axiomatic approach to entropies and relative entropies that relies only on minimal information-theoretic axioms, namely monotonicity under mixing and data-processing as well as additivity for product distributions. We find that these
Non-orthogonal access techniques have recently gained renewed interest in the context of next generation wireless networks. As the relative gain, with respect to traditionally employed orthogonal-access techniques depends on many factors, it is of in
