FIG. 1.

Three-variable dependencies that make up the multi-information or total correlation (we adopt the convention here that X is 1, Y is 2, and Z is 3). The lines represent the components of dependence among the variables (small circles) as in the above equation, where the epistatic component is represented by the lines emanating from the triangle. The epistatic component is E = −I123+S.
