Connecting Lexicographic with Maximum Entropy Entailment
Abstract. This paper reviews and relates two default reasoning mechanisms, lexicographic (lex) and maximum entropy (me) entailment. Meentailment requires that defaults be assigned ...

Exponential Priors for Maximum Entropy Models
Maximum entropy models are a common modeling technique, but prone to overfitting. We show that using an exponential distribution as a prior leads to bounded absolute discounting b...

A Hierarchical Approach in Multilevel Thresholding Based on Maximum Entropy and Bayes' Formula
An efficient hierarchical approach for image multi-level thresholding is proposed based on the maximum entropy principle and Bayes' formula, in which no assumptions of the im...

A maximum entropy approach to OFDM channel estimation
In this work, a Bayesian framework for OFDM channel estimation is proposed. Using the maximum entropy principle to exploit prior system information at the receiver, we successively...
