中文版:巴氏距离计算器
原理:Bhattacharyya 系数 BC = Σ√(p_i·q_i) 度量两个分布的重叠程度(0 到 1),巴氏距离 D_B = −ln BC 把重叠量转成对数口径。它等价于 α = 0.5 的 Rényi 散度家族成员,与指数族分布的 Fisher 信息有几何联系。
步骤:① 输入两个分布;② 点击计算;③ 读出 BC、巴氏距离与 Hellinger 距离换算。
示例:p = (0.5, 0.5)、q = (0.9, 0.1) 时 BC = 0.894427191、D_B = 0.111571775657 奈特、Hellinger = 0.324919696233;p = (0.7, 0.3)、q = (0.2, 0.8) 时 BC = 0.864063687234。
注意事项:BC = 1 当且仅当两分布相同(D_B = 0);BC = 0 表示支撑完全不重叠(D_B = ∞);对高斯分布有闭式解,本工具走离散口径;D_B 用自然对数(奈特),换底乘 log(2) 得比特;贝叶斯错误率的 Chernoff 界就由 D_B 驱动。
相关:Hellinger 距离计算器直接给 √(1−BC) 口径;Rényi 散度计算器覆盖 α = 0.5 家族;贝叶斯错误率计算器给出分类下界视角。
