Modelling and Simulation of Seasonal Rainfall Using the Principle of Maximum Entropy

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
We use the principle of maximum entropy to propose a parsimonious model for the generation of simulated rainfall during the wettest three-month season at a typical location on the east coast of Australia.

A critique of Jaynes' maximum entropy principle

open access: yesAdvances in Applied Mathematics, 1981
AbstractFriedman and Shimony exhibited an anomaly in Jaynes' maximum entropy prescription: that if a certain unknown parameter is assumed to be characterized a priori by a normalizable probability measure, then the prior and posterior probabilities computed by means of the prescription are consistent with probability theory only if this measure assigns

Transport of charged particles: Entropy production and Maximum Dissipation Principle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 2015
In order to describe the dynamics of crowded ions (charged particles), we use an energetic variation approach to derive a modified Poisson-Nernst-Planck (PNP) system which includes an extra dissipation due to the effective velocity differences between ion species.

On the relation between plausibility logic and the maximum-entropy principle: a numerical study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
What is the relationship between plausibility logic and the principle of maximum entropy? When does the principle give unreasonable or wrong results? When is it appropriate to use the rule `expectation = average'?

Simultaneous Extrema in the Entropy Production for Steady-State Fluid Flow in Parallel Pipes

open access: yes, 2010
Steady-state flow of an incompressible fluid in parallel pipes can simultaneously satisfy two contradictory extremum principles in the entropy production, depending on the flow conditions.

How multiplicity determines entropy and the derivation of the maximum entropy principle for complex systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The maximum entropy principle (MEP) is a method for obtaining the most likely distribution functions of observables from statistical systems, by maximizing entropy under constraints.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Infrared laser sampling of low volumes combined with shotgun lipidomics reveals lipid markers in palatine tonsil carcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Nanosecond infrared laser (NIRL) low‐volume sampling combined with shotgun lipidomics uncovers distinct lipidome alterations in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) of the palatine tonsil. Several lipid species consistently differentiate tumor from healthy tissue, highlighting their potential as diagnostic markers.

Identification of serum protein biomarkers for pre‐cancerous lesions associated with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This work identified serum proteins associated with pancreatic epithelial neoplasms (PanINs) and early‐stage PDAC. Proteomics screens assessed genetically engineered mice with abundant PanINs, KPC mice (Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐KrasG12D/+ Lox‐STOP‐Lox‐Trp53R172H/+ Pdx1‐Cre) before PDAC development and also early‐stage PDAC patients (n = 31), compared to benign ...

Principle of maximum entropy in the estimation of suspended sediment concentration

open access: yesRBRH
The concern with water quality has been promoting development of better monitoring and control techniques every day. As sediments transport most of water contaminants, their study is fundamental.
