Entropy Optimization, Maxwell–Boltzmann, and Rayleigh Distributions
Entropy Optimization, Maxwell–Boltzmann, and Rayleigh Distributions
In physics, communication theory, engineering, statistics, and other areas, one of the methods of deriving distributions is the optimization of an appropriate measure of entropy under relevant constraints. In this paper, it is shown that by optimizing a measure of entropy introduced by the second author, one can derive densities …
