Attributes
----------
*data : array-like, shape (n_samples,)
The data used to estimate the (conditional) mutual information.
You can pass an arbitrary number of data arrays as positional arguments.
For conditional mutual information, only two data arrays are allowed.
cond : array-like, optional
The conditional data used to estimate the conditional mutual information.
offset : int, optional
Number of positions to shift the data arrays relative to each other.
Delay/lag/shift between the variables. Default is no shift.
Not compatible with the ``cond`` parameter / conditional MI.

Notes
-----
This estimator uses the Zhang entropy estimator to compute mutual
information through the entropy combination formula.
Note that the entropy combination formula is used (_generic_mi_from_entropy)
not a dedicated implementation as other MI might have.
