Entropy-Based Inference using R and the np Package: A Primer
نویسنده
چکیده
We describe new functionality in the R (R Development Core Team (2010)) package np (Hayfield and Racine (2008)) by providing a brief overview of each approach and its implementation followed by brief illustrative examples. A simple demonstration outlining how practitioners can implement their own entropy functions is also provided.

Estimation of coal proximate analysis factors and calorific value by multivariable regression method and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)
The proximate analysis is the most common form of coal evaluation and it reveals the quality of a coal sample. It examines four factors including the moisture, ash, volatile matter (VM), and fixed carbon (FC) within the coal sample. Every factor is determined through a distinct experimental procedure under ASTM specified conditions. These determinations are time consuming and require a signific...
متن کاملPrediction of toxicity of aliphatic carboxylic acids using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system
Toxicity of 38 aliphatic carboxylic acids was studied using non-linear quantitative structure-toxicityrelationship (QSTR) models. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was used to construct thenonlinear QSTR models in all stages of study. Two ANFIS models were developed based upon differentsubsets of descriptors. The first one used log ow K and LUMO E as inputs and had good predicti...
متن کاملOn the Links between Probabilistic Graphical Models and Submodular Optimisation. (Liens entre modèles graphiques probabilistes et optimisation sous-modulaire)
A probabilistic graphical model encodes conditional independences among random variables, which is related to factorisable distributions. Moreover, the entropy of a probability distribution on a set of discrete random variables is always bounded by the entropy of its factorisable counterpart. This is due to the submodularity of entropy on the set of discrete random variables. Submodular functio...

متن کاملImplementation of Traditional (S-R)-Based PM Method with Bayesian Inference
In order to perform Preventive Maintenance (PM), two approaches have evolved in the literature. The traditional approach is based on the use of statistical and reliability analysis of equipment failure. Under statistical-reliability (S-R)-based PM, the objective of achieving the minimum total cost is pursued by establishing fixed PM intervals, which are statistically optimal, at which to replac...
