Mutual information is a measure of the mutual dependence between two random variables. It is often used in information theory and statistics. The unit of mutual information is bits.
Average mutual information is the average of mutual information over a set of symbols. It is often used to measure the similarity between two sequences of symbols. The unit of average mutual information is bits per symbol.
Option A is incorrect because bits are the unit of mutual information, not average mutual information.
Option B is incorrect because bytes are not a unit of mutual information.
Option D is incorrect because bytes per symbol is not a unit of mutual information.
