Abstract: Convex operational models (COMs) are considered as great extrapolations to larger settings of any statistical theory. In this article we generalize the maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt) of Jaynes' to any COM. After expressing Max-Ent in a geometrical and latttice theoretical setting, we are able to cast it for any COM. This scope-amplification opens the door to a new systematization of the principle and sheds light into its geometrical structure.
