Information Loss due to the Data Reduction of Sample Data from Discrete Distributions
In this paper, we study the information lost when a real-valued statistic is used to reduce or summarize sample data from a discrete random variable with a one-dimensional parameter. We compare the probability that a random sample gives a particular data set to the probability of the statistic’s val...
