Changes made to CREClass.m
Here I've added an alternative calculation for the Relevance Boundary.
CalcRBShannon is now part of the CREClass.m file.
The TestCREClass has been updated to allow testing this new feature.
NB: this is work in progress

% 23 and 24 Nov 2022 I added a new calculation for the RB based on
% Shanon entropy given a threshold \lambda. I also think there is a
% "mistake" in calculating the RB the classical way.

% 23Nov22 Here I will try to implement a (hopefully better)
% definition of the relevance boundry. The basic idea is
% assume a dataset X= {x_1 ... x_i} X
% set a threshold \lambda NB \lambda \in of the data X
%Shanon entropy for this \lambda will be:
% H(\lamda)=p(x<\lambda)log(p(x<lambda))+p(x>=\lambda)log(p(x>=\lambda))
% Now the expectation value for H will be :
%E(H)=\int p(\lambda)*H(\lambda) d\lambda
