Nowadays there are heaps of articles on the theory of fuzzy entropy and fuzzy mutual information. However, there is a clear significant lack for a Matlab implementation of these concepts. Based on numerous requests from students and researchers, I have prepared this code to simplify such concepts and give a tool that you can try directly. Of course, you may find heaps of different methods by which you may enhance the functionality of the code, so please feel free to inform me and the rest of any such updates overhere. Kindly, if you use this code then cite either of the following papers:

Version Published Release Notes
1.3.0.0

The estimation is more accurate now, you can even plug it with the well-known MRMR feature selection and try it instead of the C++ MI toolbox that comes with MRMR algorithm.

1.2.0.0

I_xx estimation corrected with an example showing the values of I_xx and H_x when we have two completely redundant features.

1.1.0.0

The estimation of I_Cxx and I_xx have been updated into a better version now. Old versions are also included but commented for future use. If you find any bugs kindly let me know.

1.0.0.0
