The Connection between Bayesian Inference and Information Theory for Model Selection, Information Gain and Experimental Design

We show a link between Bayesian inference and information theory that is useful for model selection, assessment of information entropy and experimental design. We align Bayesian model evidence (BME) with relative entropy and cross entropy in order to simplify computations using prior-based (Monte Ca...
