Efficient Estimation of Mutual Information for Strongly Dependent Variables
Shuyang Gao, Greg Ver Steeg, Aram Galstyan
We demonstrate that a popular class of nonparametric mutual information (MI) estimators based on k-nearest-neighbor graphs requires number of samples that scales exponentially with…
