Again, the Wiener measure is a reasonable choice, but I guess it depends on the applications you have in mind. 3) same as 2), I guess it depends on your applications, but perhpas check out Sanov's theorem for a starting point?

Jul 15, 2020 at 17:51 comment added mw19930312 Hi Leo, thanks for the answer here! While I'm digesting the references, I have some quick questions here. 1) Do we have any convenient way to compute $H(P|R)$? As far as I have concerned, the Radon-Nykodim density is not easy to compute... 2) Is there a good choice of $P$ in infinite-dimensional case? I know that a uniform distribution doesn't exist in infinite-dimensional case... 3) If I want to extend this notion of relative entropy to a space of random variables (e.g., I would like to choose an r.v. under some probability distribution), then what reference measure would be available?
