中文版:Rényi 散度计算器

Renyi Divergence Calculator
分布 p(逗号分隔,和为 1)
分布 q(逗号分隔,和为 1,项数相同)
阶数 α(大于 0 且不等于 1)

原理:Rényi 散度 D_α(p‖q) = log2(Σ p_i^α·q_i^(1−α)) / (α−1),是 KL 散度的α阶推广,形成一个单参数家族:α 越大越关注 p 的大概率尾部,α 越小越关注小概率尾部。

步骤:① 输入两个分布与阶数α;② 点击计算;③ 读出 D_α。

示例:p = (0.5, 0.5)、q = (0.9, 0.1) 时 α = 2 给出 D_2 = 1.473931188332 比特(碰撞散度);α = 0.5 给出 D_0.5 = 0.321928094887 比特;p = (0.3, 0.3, 0.4)、q = (0.4, 0.4, 0.2)、α = 3 时 D_3 = 0.477098155193 比特。

注意事项:α = 1 时取极限恰为 KL 散度;α = 2 称为碰撞散度(与密码学碰撞概率相关);α = 0.5 与 Bhattacharyya 系数成正比;α 必须大于 0 且不等于 1;对固定分布对,D_α 随α单调不减——这个序关系是差分隐私证明的核心工具。

相关:KL 散度计算器是 α 趋近 1 的特例;Bhattacharyya 距离计算器对应 α = 0.5 的家族成员;卡方散度计算器对应 α = 2 的一阶泰勒近似。
