When approximating one probability density with another density, it is desirable to minimize the information loss of the approximation as quantified by, e.g., the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD). It has been known for some time that in the case of the Gaussian distribution, matching the first two moments of the original density yields the optimal approximation in terms of minimizing the KLD. In...
