Description: This is a 'C++' mutual information (MI) library based on
        the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm. There are three
        functions provided for computing MI for continuous values,
        mixed continuous and discrete values, and conditional MI for
        continuous values. They are based on algorithms by A. Kraskov,
        et. al. (2004) <doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.69.066138>, BC Ross
        (2014)<doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0087357>, and A. Tsimpiris
        (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.eswa.2012.05.014>, respectively.
