We give a categorical treatment, in the spirit of Baez and Fritz, of relative
entropy for probability distributions defined on standard Borel spaces. We
define a category suitable for reasoning about statistical inference on
standard Borel spaces. We define relative entropy as a functor into Lawvere's
category and we show convexity, lower semicontinuity and uniqueness.
