Primes¶
- Metric
- The abstraction also makes the divergence boundary a first-class object of reasoning — recognizing that Kullback–Leibler divergence is not a metric (it violates symmetry and the triangle inequality) is exactly the kind of structural news the framing surfaces, and it changes which tools may be used.
This sourceDefines the KL divergence, which is non-symmetric and violates the triangle inequality — hence a divergence, not a metric.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
