  <dc:title>Bivariate Kullback-Leibler Divergence</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package BivKLD version 0.1.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Estimates the directed Kullback-Leibler divergence between two
    bivariate continuous distributions by numerical integration of kernel
    density estimates. Also computes pairwise divergences among groups and
    exact divergences for discrete, bivariate normal, bivariate Pareto type II,
    and independent bivariate Weibull models. The kernel estimator follows
