Entropies of the Chinese Land Use/Cover Change from 1990 to 2010 at a County Level

Entropy, 2017
Land Use/Cover Change (LUCC) has gradually became an important direction in the research of global changes. LUCC is a complex system, and entropy is a measure of the degree of disorder of a system.

A Clustering Method Based on the Maximum Entropy Principle

Entropy, 2015
Clustering is an unsupervised process to determine which unlabeled objects in a set share interesting properties. The objects are grouped into k subsets (clusters) whose elements optimize a proximity measure.

The McMillan Theorem for Colored Branching Processes and Dimensions of Random Fractals

Entropy, 2014
For the simplest colored branching process, we prove an analog to the McMillan theorem and calculate the Hausdorff dimensions of random fractals defined in terms of the limit behavior of empirical measures generated by finite genetic lines.

Machine learning classification of archaea and bacteria identifies novel predictive genomic features

BMC Genomics
Background Archaea and Bacteria are distinct domains of life that are adapted to a variety of ecological niches. Several genome-based methods have been developed for their accurate classification, yet many aspects of the specific genomic features that ...
