Information Theoretic Learning

José C. Principe is Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Biomedical Engineering, and BellSouth Professor at the University of Florida, and the Founder and Director of the Computational NeuroEngineering Laboratory. He is an IEEE and AIMBE Fellow, Past President of the International Neural Network Society, Past Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Trans. on Biomedical Engineering and the Founder Editor-in-Chief of the IEEE Reviews on Biomedical Engineering. He has written an interactive electronic book on Neural Networks, a book on Brain Machine Interface Engineering and more recently a book on Kernel Adaptive Filtering, and was awarded the 2011 IEEE Neural Network Pioneer Award.

From the book reviews: "The book is remarkable in various ways in the information it presents on the concept and use of entropy functions and their applications in signal processing and solution of statistical problems such as M-estimation, classification, and clustering. Students of engineering and statistics will greatly benefit by reading it." (C. R. Rao, Technometrics, Vol. 55 (1), February, 2013)
