The comparison between an arbitrary information source and Markov chains and its limit properties
Chen Wen-bo · Journal of Lanzhou University · 2005
We introduce the concept sample divergence rate of P relative to Q, i.e. h(P|Q) as a measure of 'dissimilarity' between arbitrary information source and Markov chain, and study the relationship between h(P|Q) and the strong law of large numbers of frequency. Under suitable restricted conditions, we get the lower bound of h(P|Q),
