Superstatistical distributions from a maximum entropy principle.
We deal with a generalized statistical description of nonequilibrium complex systems based on least biased distributions given some prior information. A maximum entropy principle is introduced that allows for the determination of the distribution of the fluctuating intensive parameter beta of a superstatistical system, given certain constraints on the complex system under consideration. We appl...
متن کاملThe Relevance of Maximum Entropy Production Principle and Maximum Information Entropy Principle in Biology
We start this talk posing the question, is there any physical principle that can serve as a selection principle in biology too? One of the first undertakings in this direction, conducted by Prigogine and Wiame [1] noticed correctly that biological processes are irreversible and as such should be described within irreversible thermodynamics. Since irreversible processes are characterized by entr...
متن کاملMaximum Entropy Principle with General Deviation Measures
An approach to the Shannon and Rényi entropy maximization problems with constraints on the mean and law invariant deviation measure for a random variable has been developed. The approach is based on the representation of law invariant deviation measures through corresponding convex compact sets of nonnegative concave functions. A solution to the problem has been shown to have an alpha-concave d...
متن کاملMaximum entropy principle with imprecise side-conditions
In this paper we consider the maximum entropy principle with imprecise side-conditions, where the imprecise side-conditions are modeled as fuzzy sets. Our solution produces fuzzy discrete probability distributions and fuzzy probability density functions.
متن کاملRemarks on the Maximum Entropy Principle with Application to the Maximum Entropy Theory of Ecology
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 associated with the probability distribution p. Consequently, if two observers use different independent variables p or g(p), the associated entropy functio...
