information measure 信息度量 In information theory, a suitable function of the frequency of occurrence of a specified event from a set of possible events conventionally taken as a measure of the relative value of the intelligence conveyed by the occurrence. In infor- mation theory, the term “event” is to be understood as used in the theory of probability; e.g., the presence of a given element of a set, the occurrence of a specified character or of a specified word in a message. 在信息论中,一个可能事件集中的一个特定事件发生的频率的适当函数,习惯作为对这个 事件发生时传送信息相对值的一种度量。在信息论中,术语“事件”的含义与在概率论中的 含义相同。例如,一个集合中的某一给定元素的存在,在一条报文中某一指定字符或字的出 现等。 |
