Persistent Cross Entropy

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 25, 2026 · UTC

Persistent entropy is the Shannon entropy of a persistence-based probability measure defined on a persistence diagram. However, its cross-entropy version is not naturally defined because two persistence diagrams generally have different event spaces. To bridge these event spaces, we combine a similarity function with persistence weighting to define an induced probability. The induced probability reflects information from one diagram on the event space of the other diagram and assigns unexplained probability mass to the unexplained event. Using the induced probability, we extend cross entropy t
