DEF

ratio Hr of the entropy H to the decision content H0; in mathematical notation: Hr = H/H0

OBS

Example: Let {a,b,c} be a set of three events and let p(a) = 0,5, p(b) = 0,25, and p(c) = 0,25 be the probabilities of their occurrences. The relative entropy of this set is Hr = 1,5 Sh / 1,580 Sh = 0,95

DEF

rapport Hr de l'entropie H à la quantité de décision H0, exprimé mathématiquement par Hr = H/H0

OBS

Exemple : Soit {a,b,c} un jeu de trois événements et p(a)=0,5, p(b)=0,25 et p(c)=0,25 leurs probabilités de réalisation. L'entropie relative de ce jeu est Hr = 1,5 Sh / 1,580 Sh = 0,95
