Add random noise to data in Kraskov calculators #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Large numbers of identical data cause problems for the Kraskov estimator (since 
they violate its underlying assumptions).
Kraskov's toolkit MILCA adds in a small amount of random noise to address this.

We should add a property to do this to all Kraskov calculators.
This has been done for the Kraskov MI calculator in r305, but we still need to 
add it to conditional MI calculators and check that it works ok for TE and AIS.

r515 adds and implements property for this for Conditional MI calculators.
Still need to add for multi-information

r522 adds and implements this property for Kraskov Multi-information 
calculators, thereby closing this issue.
