A Generalized Relative (α, β)-Entropy: Geometric Properties and Applications to Robust Statistical Inference

Entropy and relative entropy measures play a crucial role in mathematical information theory. The relative entropies are also widely used in statistics under the name of divergence measures which link these two fields of science through the minimum divergence principle. Divergence measures are popul...
