May 26, 2020 at 15:52 | comment | added | whuber♦ | For starters, the very meaning and mathematical definition of mutual information varies with the distribution of $\mathbf x:$ it has one meaning for discrete distributions and another for continuous ones. It's possible in the discrete case for the mutual information to be finite but not in the continuous case, because the distribution of the constant is singular relative to any continuous distribution. | |
