Abstract :
This work revisits and extends the problem of consistent divergence estimation using data-dependent partitions. For distributions defined on (¿d, B(¿d)), the main result characterizes sufficient conditions on a data-dependent partition scheme to get a strongly consistent histogram-based estimate of the divergence.
