Originální abstrakt

The paper is concerned with the solution of a statistical problem of finding discrete probability distributions conforming to the requirement of maximum entropy under conditions given by estimates of their general moments from the observed relative frequencies. It is shown that the distributions derived are of an exponential type with maximum likelihood estimations of parameters that are also estimations by and modified chi square method. The new PC software Entropy for estimations is described and the results are illustrated by examples. Applications of the method are possible expect among others to control of the genetic algorithms and neural nets.
