Image segmentation plays an important role in medical imaging applications. Therefore, accurate methods are needed for the successful segmentation of medical images for diagnosis and detection of various diseases. In this paper, we have used maximum entropy to achieve image segmentation. Maximum entropy has been calculated using Shannon, Renyi and Tsallis entropies. This work has novelty based ...

Sanov’s Theorem and the Conditional Limit Theorem (CoLT) are established for a multicolor Pólya Eggenberger urn sampling scheme, giving the Pólya divergence and the Pólya extension to the Maximum Relative Entropy (MaxEnt) method. Pólya MaxEnt includes the standard MaxEnt as a special case. The universality of standard MaxEnt advocated by an axiomatic approach to inference for inverse problems i...

In this paper, we have developed conditions under which the entropy function and the residual entropy function characterize the distribution. We have also studied some stochastic comparisons based on the entropy measure and established relations between entropy comparisons and comparisons with respect to other measures in reliability. Conditions for decreasing (increasing) uncertainty in a resi...

The concept of uncertain entropy is used to provide a quantitative measurement of the uncertainty associated with uncertain variables. After introducing the definition, this paper gives some examples of entropy of uncertain variables. Furthermore this paper proposes the maximum entropy principle for uncertain variables, that is, out of all the uncertainty distributions satisfying given constrai...

Evidence from climate science suggests that a principle of maximum thermodynamic entropy production can be used to make predictions about some physical systems. I discuss the general form of this principle and an inherent problem with it, currently unsolved by theoretical approaches: how to determine which system it should be applied to. I suggest a new way to derive the principle from statisti...

This paper reports a new reading for wavelets, which is based on the classical ’De Broglie’ principle. The waveparticle duality principle is adapted to wavelets. Every continuous basic wavelet is associated with a proper probability density, allowing defining the Shannon entropy of a wavelet. Further entropy definitions are considered, such as Jumarie or Renyi entropy of wavelets. We proved tha...
