A Principle of Maximum Entropy for the Navier-Stokes Equations [PDF]
Physica D: Nonlinear PhenomenaA principle of maximum entropy is proposed in the context of viscous incompressible flow in Eulerian coordinates. The relative entropy functional, defined over the space of $L^2$ divergence-free velocity fields, is maximized relative to alternate measures supported over the energy--enstrophy surface.

The Maximum Entropy Production Principle: Its Theoretical Foundations and Applications to the Earth System [PDF]
, 2010 The Maximum Entropy Production (MEP) principle has been remarkably successful in producing accurate predictions for non-equilibrium states. We argue that this is because the MEP principle is an effective inference procedure that produces the best ...

Belief Reliability Distribution Based on Maximum Entropy Principle
IEEE Access, 2018 Belief reliability is a new reliability metric based on the uncertainty theory, which aims to measure system performance incorporating the influences from design margin, aleatory uncertainty, and epistemic uncertainty.

Maximum Entropy Principle in Image Restoration
Advances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2018 Many imaging systems are faced with the problem of estimating a true image from a degraded dataset. In such systems, the image degradation is translated into a convolution with a Point Spread Function (PSF) and addition of noise.

Generalization of the maximum entropy principle for curved statistical manifolds
Physical Review Research, 2021 The maximum entropy principle (MEP) is one of the most prominent methods to investigate and model complex systems. Despite its popularity, the standard form of the MEP can only generate Boltzmann-Gibbs distributions, which are ill-suited for many ...

Lognormality in Turbulence Energy Spectra
Entropy, 2020 The maximum entropy principle states that the energy distribution will tend toward a state of maximum entropy under the physical constraints, such as the zero energy at the boundaries and a fixed total energy content. For the turbulence energy spectra, a
