function

scipy.stats._multivariate:multivariate_t_gen.entropy

source: build-install/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/scipy/stats/_multivariate.py:5371

Signature

def entropy(self, loc = None, shape = 1, df = 1)

Summary

Calculate the differential entropy of a multivariate t-distribution.

Parameters

loc : array_like, optional

Location of the distribution. (default 0)

shape : array_like, optional

Positive semidefinite matrix of the distribution. (default 1)

df : float, optional

Degrees of freedom of the distribution; must be greater than zero. If np.inf then results are multivariate normal. The default is 1.

allow_singular : bool, optional

Whether to allow a singular matrix. (default False)

Returns

h : float

Differential entropy
