Rényi-Induced Information Geometry and Hartigan's Prior Family
Rebecca Maria Kuntz, Heinrich von Campe, Björn Malte Schäfer
We derive the information geometry induced by the statistical Rényi divergence, namely its metric tensor, its dual parametrized connections, as well as its dual Laplacians. Based…

Partition function approach to non-Gaussian likelihoods: information theory and state variables for Bayesian inference
Rebecca Maria Kuntz, Heinrich von Campe, Tobias Röspel +2
The significance of statistical physics concepts such as entropy extends far beyond classical thermodynamics. We interpret the similarity between partitions in statistical mechanic…
