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

Pricing Interval European Option with the Principle of Maximum Entropy [PDF]
This paper develops the interval maximum entropy model for the interval European option valuation by estimating an underlying asset distribution. The refined solution for the model is obtained by the Lagrange multiplier.

On the Entropy and the Maximum Entropy Principle of Uncertain Variables
A new variance formula is developed using the generalized inverse of an increasing function. Based on the variance formula, a new entropy formula for any uncertain variable is provided.

Principle of Maximum Entropy Applied to Rayleigh–Bénard Convection [PDF]
A statistical-mechanical investigation is performed on Rayleigh-B nard convection of a dilute classical gas starting from the Boltzmann equation. We first present a microscopic derivation of basic hydrodynamic equations and an expression of entropy appropriate for the convection.

Trade-Off Between Entropy and Gini Index in Income Distribution [PDF]
We investigate the fundamental trade-off between entropy and the Gini index within income distributions, employing a stochastic framework to expose deficiencies in conventional inequality metrics.
