Implications of the Cressie-Read Family of Additive Divergences for Information Recovery

To address the unknown nature of probability-sampling models, in this paper we use information theoretic concepts and the Cressie-Read (CR) family of information divergence measures to produce a flexible family of probability distributions, likelihood functions, estimators, and inference procedures....
