Minimum Description Length

Minimum Description Length

Minimum Description Length oder MDL ist eine informationstheoretische Methode, die 1978 von Jorma Rissanen zur Beschreibung von Regelmäßigkeiten in gemessenen Daten eingeführt wurde. Je stärker die Daten komprimiert werden können, desto größer ist der Anteil der Ordnung im Signal. Die MDL dient zur induktiven Inferenz.
