Approximations to Entropy Functions: Entropic Polynomials

EasyChair Preprint 1473, version 2

Abstract

In this research paper, it is proved that linear/quadratic approximations to Shannon  /Gibbs  entropy lead to Tsallis entropy, Sq(p) for q = 2/q = 3. Based on higher degree approximations of logarithm, entropic polynomials are derived.

Keyphrases: Entropic Polynomials, Gibbs entropy, Shannon entropy, Tsallis entropy, approximation
