Abstract
A method for checking membership in the region of entropic vectors generated from N bits is presented. A general technique for utilizing this method to create inner bounds for regions of entropic vectors as a function of outer bounds is then presented. These two algorithms are then used to provide new insights regarding relationships among well known bounds for the region of entropic vectors..
