Finding Informative Features - CMU Statistics

Similarly, our uncertainty about the class C, in the absence of any other information, is just the entropy of C: H[C] = X c Pr(C= c)log 2 Pr(C= c) Now suppose we observe the value of the feature X.

Correlation in Random Variables

If the random variables are correlated then this should yield a better result, on the average, than just guessing. We are encouraged to select a linear rule when we note that the sample points tend to fall ... for a continuous-time RP and X[n]orXn for a discrete-time RP. Lecture 11 20.

Finally, we emphasize that the independence of random variables implies the mean independence, but the latter does not necessarily imply the former. Theorem 2 (Expectation and Independence) Let X and Y be independent random variables. Then, the two random variables are mean independent, which is defined as, E(XY) = E(X)E(Y).
