A review on Thermodynamics in Water Cycle with Emphasizing on Entropy and Maximum Entropy Production Principle [PDF]
Hydrological cycle is directed into thermodynamic non-equilibrium state and maximum entropy production through thermodynamic processes. Therefore, it is possible to understand and describe hydrological cycle through computation of entropy production rate

The Principle of Maximum Entropy and the Distribution of Mass in Galaxies
We do not have a final answer to the question of why galaxies choose a particular internal mass distribution. Here we examine whether the distribution is set by thermodynamic equilibrium (TE).

Maximum Entropy Theory of Ecology: A Reply to Harte
In a paper published in this journal, I addressed the following problem: under which conditions will two scientists, observing the same system and sharing the same initial information, reach the same probabilistic description upon the application of the ...

Entropy: From Thermodynamics to Hydrology
Some known results from statistical thermophysics as well as from hydrology are revisited from a different perspective trying: (a) to unify the notion of entropy in thermodynamic and statistical/stochastic approaches of complex hydrological systems and ...

The Principle of Uncertain Maximum Entropy
The Principle of Maximum Entropy is a rigorous technique for estimating an unknown distribution given partial information while simultaneously minimizing bias. However, an important requirement for applying the principle is that the available information be provided error-free (Jaynes 1982).

Beyond Moments: Extending the Maximum Entropy Principle to Feature Distribution Constraints
The maximum entropy principle introduced by Jaynes proposes that a data distribution should maximize the entropy subject to constraints imposed by the available knowledge.

Relative entropy, Haar measures and relativistic canonical velocity distributions [PDF]
The thermodynamic maximum principle for the Boltzmann-Gibbs-Shannon (BGS) entropy is reconsidered by combining elements from group and measure theory. Our analysis starts by noting that the BGS entropy is a special case of relative entropy.

Some Notes on Maximum Entropy Utility
The maximum entropy principle is effective in solving decision problems, especially when it is not possible to obtain sufficient information to induce a decision.
