Most likely maximum entropy for population analysis: A case study in decompression sickness prevention

We estimate the density of a set of biophysical parameters from region censored observations. We propose a new Maximum Entropy (maxent) estimator formulated as finding the most likely constrained maxent density. By using the Ŕnyi entropy of order two instead of the Shannon entropy, we are lead to a...

description We estimate the density of a set of biophysical parameters from region censored observations. We propose a new Maximum Entropy (maxent) estimator formulated as finding the most likely constrained maxent density. By using the Ŕnyi entropy of order two instead of the Shannon entropy, we are lead to a quadratic optimization problem with linear inequality constraints that has an efficient numerical solution. We compare the proposed estimator to the NPMLE and to the best fitting maxent solutions in real data from hyperbaric diving, showing that the resulting distribution has better generalization performance than NPMLE or maxent alone.
