Moments of the maximum entropy and the symmetric maximum entropy distribution

open access: yesEconomics Letters, 1981
Abstract Simulation results are described for four estimators of moments of a normal distribution: the sample and maximum entropy (ME) moments and those obtained when the sample or ME distribution is symmetrized. The discussion includes the small-sample bias and the gain in efficiency which results from the knowledge that the parent distribution is ...

Evidence‐Based Clinical Practice Guidelines for the Management of Pediatric Febrile Neutropenia: Resource‐Sensitive Recommendations for the Asian Continent

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a frequent and serious complication in children receiving cancer therapy. Standardizing FN management across Asia is challenging due to variable healthcare infrastructure, diagnostic capacity, and infection patterns; however, it could improve resource use and patient outcomes.

How biased are maximum entropy models? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Maximum entropy models have become popular statistical models in neuroscience and other areas in biology, and can be useful tools for obtaining estimates of mutual information in biological systems.

Utility Function from Maximum Entropy Principle

open access: yesEntropy, 2006
Recently we used the maximum entropy principle for finding the price density in a multi agent insurance market. The result is similar to what the Buhlmann had obtained by maximizing the utility function.

Abatacept for Prophylaxis of Acute and Chronic Graft‐Versus‐Host‐Disease in Children Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Cohort Studies

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Graft‐versus‐host disease (GvHD) remains one of the most significant complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Abatacept, a selective T‐cell costimulation modulator, is a relatively novel prophylactic agent, though pediatric data remain limited.

Tail Risk Constraints and Maximum Entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
Portfolio selection in the financial literature has essentially been analyzed under two central assumptions: full knowledge of the joint probability distribution of the returns of the securities that will comprise the target portfolio; and investors ...

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.

Maximum entropy models capture melodic styles

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
We introduce a Maximum Entropy model able to capture the statistics of melodies in music. The model can be used to generate new melodies that emulate the style of a given musical corpus.

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

The maximum entropy principle for compositional data

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.
