Determination of soil permeability coefficient following an updated grading entropy method

An Updated Review of Goodness of Fit Tests Based on Entropy

Different approaches to goodness of fit (GOF) testing are proposed. This survey intends to present the developments on Goodness of Fit based on entropy during the last 50 years, from the very first origins until the most recent advances for different data and models. Goodness of fit tests based on Shannon entropy was started by Vasicek in 1976 and were continued by many authors. In this paper, ...

Entropy coefficient of determination for generalized linear models

Laboratory Method for Characterization of Soil/water Adsorption Coefficient

The study of solute transport processes in the soil requires the determination of the adsorption coefficient. A laboratory experiment based on Batch equilibrium method was developed. This method involves contacting a chosen soil with water solutions with different concentrations and adjusted the obtained isotherms on analytical models. The method was applied to three soils and the results have ...

Determination of Maximum Bayesian Entropy Probability Distribution

In this paper, we consider the determination methods of maximum entropy multivariate distributions with given prior under the constraints, that the marginal distributions or the marginals and covariance matrix are prescribed. Next, some numerical solutions are considered for the cases of unavailable closed form of solutions. Finally, these methods are illustrated via some numerical examples.

Determination of the Potential Habitat of Range Plant Species Using Maximum Entropy Method

This study aimed to identify the most important physical variables affecting the distribution of four range plants species (Tamarix aphylla, Calligonum comosum, Prosopis spicigera and Salsola rigida) habitats and to prepare potential habitat map of the species using Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) method in rangelands of Jiroft city, Kerman province, located in SE Iran. To this end, sampling of vegeta...
