1D Entropy

Description

Calculates entropy in 1 dimension

Usage

entropy_1d(x, grid_size, relative = FALSE)

Arguments

x

A numeric vector.

grid_size

Bin size in the same unit as the data.

relative

Logical. Rescale entropy relative to the maximum entropy given the number of grid cells? Defaults to FALSE.

Value

Entropy value.

Examples

x <- rnorm(1000, 5, 1)
entropy_1d(x, grid_size = 0.1)
entropy_1d(x, grid_size = 0.1, relative = TRUE)
y <- runif(1000, 1, 10)
entropy_1d(y, grid_size = 0.1)
entropy_1d(y, grid_size = 0.1, relative = TRUE)
