Universal Bounds for Self-Normalized Kullback-Leibler Estimation
arXiv:2610.12851v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work studies an entropy-based estimator of Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence constructed from normalized importance weights. We prove a universal finite-sample bound showing that its expectation can exceed the target-proposal KL divergence by at m…
