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...

Statistical precision of information retrieval evaluation
We introduce and validate bootstrap techniques to compute confidence intervals that quantify the effect of test-collection variability on average precision (AP) and mean average...
