Maximum Entropy Distributions of Scale-Invariant Processes

Maximum Entropy Distributions of Scale-Invariant Processes

Organizations of many variables in nature such as soil moisture and topography exhibit patterns with no dominant scales. The maximum entropy (ME) principle is proposed to show how these variables can be statistically described using their scale-invariant properties and geometric mean. The ME princip...
