Analysis of structural rigidities in interregional trade flow patterns
… are discussed. Extensions of principles found in entropy maximization and maximum likelihood are utilized in formulating a trade flow model inferred from flow data. Statistical analysis is used to examine the appropriateness of the model.

Statistical hadronization phenomenology in heavy ion collisions at SPS and RHIC energies
… and spectra through relativistic covariance and entropy maximization. We argue that several statistical hadronization models are possible; In particular, a distinction can be made between equilibrated staged freeze-out in which post-formation hadron interactions play an important role in …

The role of interfacial and 'entropic' enzymes in transitory starch degradation : a mathematical modeling approach
… of entropic gradients. The principle of entropy maximization provides a generalization of the equilibrium constant. Stochastic simulations confirm the results and suggest that randomization of metabolites in the cytosolic pool of soluble heteroglycans (SHG) may contribute to a robust …

Methodology for technology evaluation under uncertainty and its application in advanced coal gasification processes
… Key features of these methods include the use of entropy maximization to translate subjective opinions to probability distribution functions, and a more flexible probability model that easily captures anomaly associated with small sample data. In addition, Bayesian estimation is extended to …

Development of a 20-moment Polydisperse and Polykinetic Spray Model Coupled With a Surface Density Approach for the Modelling of the Dense and Disperse Liquid Spray Regimes
… size-conditioned moments are proposed based on entropy maximization and polynomial expressions in order to complete the closure of the system of equations. In addition, a second-order, multi-dimensional finite-volume method has been implemented for solution of the 20-moment AG system of …
