Maximum entropy methods for biological sequence modeling
Many of the same modeling methods used in natural languages, speci cally Markov models and HMM's, have also been applied to biological sequence analysis. In recent years, nat...

Maximum Entropy Rate of Markov Sources for Systems With Non-regular Constraints
Using the concept of discrete noiseless channels, it was shown by Shannon in A Mathematical Theory of Communication that the ultimate performance of an encoder for a constrained sy...

Maximum Entropy Based Phrase Reordering for Hierarchical Phrase-Based Translation
Hierarchical phrase-based (HPB) translation provides a powerful mechanism to capture both short and long distance phrase reorderings. However, the phrase reorderings lack of conte...

Iterative Scaling and Coordinate Descent Methods for Maximum Entropy Models
Maximum entropy (Maxent) is useful in natural language processing and many other areas. Iterative scaling (IS) methods are one of the most popular approaches to solve Maxent. With...
