چکیده
Biological organisms which possess a neurological system exhibit varying degrees of what can be termed rational behavior. One can hypothesize that rational behavior and thought processes in general arise as a consequence of the intrinsic rational nature of the neurological system and its constituent neurons. A similar statement may be made of the immunological system [1]. The concept of rational behavior can be made quantitative. In particular, one possible characterization of rational behavior is as follows

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.
متن کاملN ov 2 00 2 Yet Another Analysis of Dice Problems
During the MaxEnt 2002 workshop in Moscow, Idaho, Tony Vignaux asked again a few simple questions about using Maximum Entropy or Bayesian approaches for the famous Dice problems which have been analyzed many times through this workshop and also in other places. Here, there is another analysis of these problems. I hope that, this paper will answer a few questions of Tony and other participants o...

متن کاملEstimation of the Parameters of the Lomax Distribution using the EM Algorithm and Lindley Approximation
Estimation of statistical distribution parameter is one of the important subject of statistical inference. Due to the applications of Lomax distribution in business, economy, statistical science, queue theory, internet traffic modeling and so on, in this paper, the parameters of Lomax distribution under type II censored samples using maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods are estimated. Wherea...
متن کاملMaximum Probability and Relative Entropy Maximization. Bayesian Maximum Probability and Empirical Likelihood
Works, briefly surveyed here, are concerned with two basic methods: Maximum Probability and Bayesian Maximum Probability; as well as with their asymptotic instances: Relative Entropy Maximization and Maximum Non-parametric Likelihood. Parametric and empirical extensions of the latter methods – Empirical Maximum Maximum Entropy and Empirical Likelihood – are also mentioned. The methods are viewe...
