%SYMMETRICUNCERTAINTY symmetric redundancy measure for categorical-discrete 
%data
%   SU = SYMMETRICUNCERTAINTY(X,Y) returns the symmetric uncertainty between
%   the two column vectors X and Y containing categorical measures.
%
%   SYMMETRICUNCERTAINTY [1] computes a symmetric scaled information 
%   measure based on mutual information [2][3] normalized to entropies of 
%   each variable X and Y
