Hi Cecilia. An MI estimate currently seems a bit out of scope of sklearn. What context would a user apply it in?Sklearn currently contains more out-of-the-box methods, while an MI estimator seems more like a building block.

Hi, May you tell me if you are interested by this measure (see my previous mail below)? In which part of scikit-learn may I develop it : clustering, feature selection? Thanks, Cécilia Hi, I have developped a script on mutual information estimation based on Renyi entropy Cauchy-Schwartz divergence (and Parzen-Window function for continous variables).This script allows to estimate MI between two disctete, continous and mixed (discrete and continous) variables. I'll plan to first parallelize the code and second to improve the code in order to estime MI between more than two features. If you are interested by this script, I can push the first version and modify it according to your feedback. Let me know.Greetings,Cécilia Damon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download BIRT iHub F-Type - The Free Enterprise-Grade BIRT Server from Actuate!
