The basic theory of the maximum-entropy principle is explained, followed by detailed applications in numerous areas of science, business and economics, including thermodynamics, mechanics, statistics, design of experiments, time-series analysis, queuing and decision theory. Contains more than 600 specially constructed exercises.目录Partial table of contents:
