A Relationship between the Ordinary Maximum Entropy Method and the Method of Maximum Entropy in the Mean [PDF]
Entropy, 2014 There are two entropy-based methods to deal with linear inverse problems, which we shall call the ordinary method of maximum entropy (OME) and the method of maximum entropy in the mean (MEM). Not only doesMEM use OME as a stepping stone, it also allows for greater generality.

A Maximum Entropy Method for the Prediction of Size Distributions. [PDF]
Entropy (Basel), 2020 We propose a method to derive the stationary size distributions of a system, and the degree distributions of networks, using maximisation of the Gibbs-Shannon entropy. We apply this to a preferential attachment-type algorithm for systems of constant size,

Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Technologies, 2022 The aim of the study is to optimize the aggregate gradation curve (AGC) for recycled aggregate concrete (RAC). Accordingly, TS 802 aggregate gradation curves such as A16, B16 and C16 and, also two proposed AGCs such as G1 and G2 are examined in the ...

, 2021 Everyone knows that athletes can get the ‘hot hand’ and have a streak in which theyperform better than normal, or an awful slump. But, a trio of psychologists – Gilovich,Vallone, and Tversky – published an analysis in 1985 showing that two NBA teamsshowed no such effects in either field goals or free throws.

Using the online cross-entropy method to learn relational policies for playing different games [PDF]
, 2011 By defining a video-game environment as a collection of objects, relations, actions and rewards, the relational reinforcement learning algorithm presented in this paper generates and optimises a set of concise, human-readable relational rules for ...
