摘要
A problem of nonparametric entropy estimation for discrete stationary ergodic processes is considered. The estimation is based on so-called "nearest-neighbor method". It is shown that, for Bernoulli measures, the estimator is unbiased, i.e. converges to the (inverse) entropy of the process. Moreover, for symmetric Bernoulli measures, the unbiased estimator can be explicitly constructed.
