A Maximum Entropy Method for the Prediction of Size Distributions
We propose a method to derive the stationary size distributions of a system, and the degree distributions of networks, using maximisation of the Gibbs-Shannon entropy. We apply this to a preferential attachment-type algorithm for systems of constant size, which contains exit of balls and urns (or no...
