in the current study, the generalized maximum entropy (gme) and dynamic positive equilibrium problem (dpep) approach were introduced and used to estimate the set of dynamic supply functions of selected annual crops in mashhad-chenaran plain during the years 2003-2011.in addition, the allen and morishima elasticities of derived demand inputs, and supply elasticity of the crops were determined. t...

volumetric techniques were employed to study the adsorption of co2 on a purified multi-wall carbon nanotubes (mwnt’s) sample, as a mesoporous material, at isothermal conditions of 288, 293 and 298 k and pressures ranging from 30 to 150 kpa. langmuir, freundlich and sips equations were used to represent the isotherms. also the parameters of these fitted isotherm models have been determined. the ...

We find that the standard relative entropy and the Umegaki entropy are designed for the purpose of inferentially updating probabilities and density matrices, respectively. From the same set of inferentially guided design criteria, both of the previously stated entropies are derived in parallel. This formulates a quantum maximum entropy method for the purpose of inferring density matrices in the...

The asymptotic convergence of probability density function (pdf) and convergence of differential entropy are examined for the non-stationary processes that follow the maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt) and maximum entropy production principle (MEPP). Asymptotic convergence of pdf provides new justification of MEPP while convergence of differential entropy is important in asymptotic analysis of ...

We consider words as a network of interacting letters, and approximate the probability distribution of states taken on by this network. Despite the intuition that the rules of English spelling are highly combinatorial (and arbitrary), we find that maximum entropy models consistent with pairwise correlations among letters provide a surprisingly good approximation to the full statistics of four l...

In this paper, it is tried to find an approximate single layer equivalent for multi-layer graphene sheets based on third order non-local elasticity theory. The plates are embedded in two parameter Winkler-Pasternak elastic foundation, and also the thermal effects are considered. A uniform transverse load is imposed on the plates. Applying the non-local theory of Eringen based on third order she...
