Stationary distribution
Stationary distribution: a distribution on the states such that the
distribution at time n + 1 is the same as the distribution at time n.
Our weather example:
If (S) =

(R) =
[
]

P=

Then

Stationary process
A stochastic process is stationary if the joint distribution of any subset is
invariant to time-shift
Entropy rate
When Xi are i.i.d., entropy H(X ) = H(X1, , Xn) =
n
n
i=1
H(Xi) = nH(X)
With dependent sequence Xi, how does H(X n) grow with n? Still linear?
Entropy rate characterizes the growth rate
Definition 1: average entropy per symbol
H(X n)
H(X) = lim

Definition 2: rate of information innovation
H (X) = lim H(Xn|Xn1, , X1)
