The generalised maximum entropy principle

From MaRDI portal
Publication:2204577





Summary: Generalisations of maximum entropy principle (MEP) and minimum discrimination information principle (MDIP) are described by \textit{H. K. Kesavan} and \textit{J. N. Kapur} [``The generalized maximum entropy principle, IEEE Trans. Syst. Man Cybern. 19, No. 5, 1042--1052 (1989; \url{doi:10.1109/21.44019})]. In this paper, we used generalised entropies and replaced Shannon entropy with Tsallis entropy when \(\alpha = 2\). The generalisation has been achieved by the entropy maximisation postulate and examining its consequences. The inverse principles which are inherent in the maximum \(\alpha\) entropy and minimum discrimination \(\alpha\) entropy are made in the new methodology.
