Abstract

In this paper, we provide geometric insights with visualization into the multivariate Gaussian distribution and its entropy and mutual information. In order to develop the multivariate Gaussian distribution with entropy and mutual information, several significant methodologies are presented through the discussion, supported by illustrations, both technically and statistically. The paper examines broad measurements of structure for the Gaussian distributions, which show that they can be described in terms of the information theory between the given covariance matrix and correlated random variables (in terms of relative entropy). The content obtained allows readers to better perceive concepts, comprehend techniques, and properly execute software programs for future study on the topic's science and implementations. It also helps readers grasp the themes' fundamental concepts to study the application of multivariate sets of data in Gaussian distribution. The simulation results also convey the behavior of different elliptical interpretations based on the multivariate Gaussian distribution with entropy for real-world applications in our daily lives, including information coding, nonlinear signal detection, etc. Involving the relative entropy and mutual information as well as the potential correlated covariance analysis, a wide range of information is addressed, including basic application concerns as well as clinical diagnostics to detect the multi-disease effects.
