摘要: We give an interpretation of the Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) Principle in gametheoretic terms. Based on this interpretation, we make a formal distinction between different ways applying distributions. MaxEnt has frequently been criticized grounds that it leads to highly representation dependent results. Our allows us avoid problem many cases.
