Monotonicity of Entropy and Fisher Information: A Quick Proof via Maximal Correlation

Published 13 Oct 2016 in cs.IT, math.IT, and math.PR | (1610.04174v1)

Abstract: A simple proof is given for the monotonicity of entropy and Fisher information associated to sums of i.i.d. random variables. The proof relies on a characterization of maximal correlation for partial sums due to Dembo, Kagan and Shepp.
