Abstract

Entropy Optimization Methods (EOM) have important applications, especially in statistics, economy, engineering and etc. There are several examples in the literature that known statistical distributions do not conform to statistical data, however the entropy optimization distributions do conform well. It is known that all statistical distributions can be obtained as the MaxEnt distribution and Entropy Optimization Distribution (EOD) especially as Generalized Entropy Optimization Distribution (GEOD) more exactly represents the given statistical data.
