Cumulative Residual Entropy, A New Measure of Information & its Application to Image Alignment
In this paper we use the cumulative distribution of a random variable to define the information content in it and use it to develop a novel measure of information that parallels S...

A New & Robust Information Theoretic Measure and Its Application to Image Alignment
In this paper we develop a novel measure of information in a random variable based on its cumulative distribution that we dub cumulative residual entropy (CRE). This measure parall...
