Notes :: Maximum Entropy
Maximum entropy is a principle stating that, given prior constraints or data, the most objective probability distribution is the one with the highest possible entropy, representing the greatest uncertainty and least assumption beyond what is known. This method selects a probability distribution that maximizes uncertainty while still satisfying the constraints of the data, such as Read More …
Notes :: Entropy
Entropy measures the average uncertainty or randomness of a system’s possible outcomes, with higher entropy meaning more uncertainty and unpredictability. For instance, the outcome of a fair coin flip is highly uncertain, reflecting high entropy. Conversely, if a system’s outcomes are highly predictable or one outcome is far more likely than others, its entropy is Read More …
