K-Nearest Neighbors Estimator¶
The full entropy expression:
\hat{H}(\mathbf{X}) =
\psi(N) -
\psi(k) +
\log{c_d} +
\frac{d}{N}\sum_{i=1}^{N}
\log{\epsilon(i)}
where: * \psi - the digamma function. * c_d=\frac{\pi^{\frac{d}{2}}}{\Gamma(1+\frac{d}{2})} * \Gamma - is the gamma function * \epsilon(i) is the distance to the i^{th} sample to its k^{th} neighbour.
