Remarks on the Maximum Entropy Principle with Application to the Maximum Entropy Theory of Ecology [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
In the first part of the paper we work out the consequences of the fact that Jaynes’ Maximum Entropy Principle, when translated in mathematical terms, is a constrained extremum problem for an entropy function H ( p ) expressing the uncertainty ...

Entropy-Based Portfolio Optimization in Cryptocurrency Markets: A Unified Maximum Entropy Framework [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
Traditional mean–variance portfolio optimization proves inadequate for cryptocurrency markets, where extreme volatility, fat-tailed return distributions, and unstable correlation structures undermine the validity of variance as a comprehensive risk ...

The maximum entropy principle for compositional data [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2022
Background Compositional systems, represented as parts of some whole, are ubiquitous. They encompass the abundances of proteins in a cell, the distribution of organisms in nature, and the stoichiometry of the most basic chemical reactions.

Use of the Principles of Maximum Entropy and Maximum Relative Entropy for the Determination of Uncertain Parameter Distributions in Engineering Applications

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
The determination of the probability distribution function (PDF) of uncertain input and model parameters in engineering application codes is an issue of importance for uncertainty quantification methods. One of the approaches that can be used for the PDF

Lieb's Theorem and Maximum Entropy Condensates [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2021
Coherent driving has established itself as a powerful tool for guiding a many-body quantum system into a desirable, coherent non-equilibrium state.

The Maximum Entropy of a Metric Space [PDF]

open access: yesThe Quarterly Journal of Mathematics, 2021
AbstractWe define a one-parameter family of entropies, each assigning a real number to any probability measure on a compact metric space (or, more generally, a compact Hausdorff space with a notion of similarity between points). These generalize the Shannon and Rényi entropies of information theory.

Statistical optimization for passive scalar transport: maximum entropy production versus maximum Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2015
We derive rigorous results on the link between the principle of maximum entropy production and the principle of maximum Kolmogorov–Sinai entropy for a Markov model of the passive scalar diffusion called the Zero Range Process.

Agency Contracts under Maximum-Entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2021
This article proposes the application of the maximum-entropy principle (MEP) to agency contracting (where a principal hires an agent to make decisions on their behalf) in situations where the principal and agent only have partial knowledge on the ...

Maximum-entropy image reconstruction using wavelets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Wavelet functions allow the sparse and efficient representation of a signal at different scales. Recently the application of wavelets to the denoising of maps of cosmic microwave background (CMB) fluctuations has been proposed. The maximum-entropy method
