Tropical probability theory and an application to the entropic cone

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

In a series of articles, we have been developing a theory of tropical diagrams of probability spaces, expecting it to be useful for information optimization problems in information theory and artificial intelligence. In this article, we give a summary of our work so far and apply the theory to derive a dimension-reduction statement about the shape of the entropic cone.
