A layman and slow learner. Thanks for your enlightenment and patience!


It is dark again. I am scared.

comment Definitions of K-L divergence based on likelihood ratio and on R-N derivative
Thanks, do you know a definition that can generalize both?

comment Definitions of K-L divergence based on likelihood ratio and on R-N derivative
Thanks, that makes sense. In the first definition, $P$ may not be absolutely continuous to $Q$, isn't it? So the second definition doesn't generalize the first one?

comment Is a parameterization defined to be surjective and/or injective?
Thanks! (1) So you are talking about the case when a parameterization needs more than one mappings to cover the manifold, right? If a parameterization only needs one mapping, then it must be surjective, is it? (2) why is every mapping in a parameterization injective? (3) in other mathematical branches other than manifold, is a parameterization (if there is only one mapping in it) of some object defined to be surjective? How about injective?

Thanks, (1) why "unless the manifold in question is an open set of Rn"? (2) Do you mean it may not be surjective? Why is it?

comment Generalization of metric that can induce ordering
Thanks, this one seems to be the one I am looking for. Is there a name for such $\delta$?
