Maxent Mechanics

This paper shows that: (a) given a mechanical system described by a set of independent coordinates in configuration space, (b) given an initial state of specified initial coordinates, and (c) given a situation in which the system can follow any one of a set of different possible paths with a pertinent probability pi , then the average path (defined as the weighted average positions and correspo...

Non-monotonic Reasoning on Probability Models: Indiierence, Independence & Maxent Part I { Overview

Through completing an underspeciied probability model, Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) supports non-monotonic inferences. Some major aspects of how this is done by MaxEnt can be understood from the background of two principles of rational decision: the concept of Indiierence and the concept of Independence. In a formal speciication MaxEnt can be viewed as (conservative) extension of these principles; ...
