这是一个有关信息熵估计，以及互信息量计算的程序包，基于模块化设计，已经做了很多优化。-ITE is capable of estimating many different variants of entropy, mutual information and divergence measures. Thanks to its highly modular design, ITE supports additionally

(i) the combinations of the estimation techniques, (ii) the easy construction and embedding of novel information theoretical estimators, and (iii) their immediate application in information theoretical optimization problems.
