1	penalized.relative.info(data, var.x, var.y, alpha = 2)

`data`	A data frame
`var.x`	The regressor (or predictor) variable (has to be the name of a variable in `data`)
`var.y`	The output variable (has to be the name of a variable in `data`)
`alpha`	(defaults to 2) A numeric

PenRI(var.y|var.x;alpha) = Sum_(a ~ var.x) P(a)^(alpha) * PointRI(var.y|var.x = a)
