Abstract. We give here an account on the results of source inversion of the ETEX-II experiment. Inversion has been performed with the maximum entropy method on the basis of non-zero measurements and in conjunction with a transport model Polair3D. The discrepancy scaling factor between the true and the reconstructed mass has been estimated to be equal to 7. The results contrast with the method's performance on the ETEX-I source. In the latter case its mass has been reconstructed with an accuracy exceeding 80%. The large value of the discrepancy factor for ETEX-II could be ascribed to modelling difficulties, possibly linked not to the transport model itself but rather to the quality of the measurements.

The distribution of primary reflection coefficients can be estimated by means of the maximum entropy method, giving rise to smooth nonparametric functions which are consistent with the data. Instead of using classical moments (e.g. skewness and kurtosis) to constraint the maximization, nonconventional sample statistics help to improve the quality of the estimates. Results using real log data from various wells located in the Neuquen Basin (Argentina) show the effectiveness of the method to estimate both robust and consistent distributions that may be used to simulate realistic sequences.

The maximum entropy method is one of the key techniques for spectral analysis. The main feature is to describe spectra in low frequency with short timeseries data. We adopted the maximum entropy method to analyze the spectrum from the dipole moment obtained by the timedependent density functional theory calculation in real time, which is intensively studied and applied to computing optical properties. In the maximum entropy method analysis, we proposed that we use the concatenated data set made from severaltimes repeated raw data together with the phase. We have applied this technique to spectral analysis of the dynamic dipole moment obtained from timedependent density functional theory dipole moment of several molecules such as oligofluorene with n = 8. As a result, the higher resolution can be obtained without any peak shift due to the phase jump. The peak position is in good agreement to that of FT with just raw data. This paper presents the efficiency and characteristic features of this technique. Метод максимальной энтропии — один из основных в спектральном анализе. Его главная особенность — описание низкочастотных спектров короткими временными рядами данных. Авторы применили метод максимальной энтропии для анализа спектров дипольного момента, полученных расчетами в реальном времени по нестационарной теории функционала плотности. Данный вопрос интенсивно изучается и находит практическое применение при расчетах оптических свойств. При анализе методом максимальной энтропии предложено использовать объединенные наборы данных, включающие несколько повторяющихся последовательностей исходных данных с учетом фазы. Данный метод был применен при проведении спектрального анализа динамического дипольного момента, рассчитанного по нестационарной теории функционала плотности на основе дипольного момента нескольких молекул — в частности, молекул олигофлуорена при n = 8. В итоге удалось повысить разрешение без смещения максимумов из-за скачка фазы. Положение максимумов хорошо согласуется с результатами применения преобразования Фурье к необработанным исходным данным. В настоящей статье представлены особенности данного метода и показатели его эффективности.

According to the limitations of the shooting environment, captured image exist the phenomenon of image blurring and noise. This paper proposes that the improved maximum entropy method recovery blurred image which acquire in aerial. Finally, according to the first order Markoff theory to evaluate the quality of the processed image, the results show that maximum entropy image restoration method compared to the conventional approach increase image clarity and details more better.

Abstract Two-dimensional zero-field nutation NQR spectroscopy has been used to determine the full quadrupolar tensor of spin - 3/2 nuclei in serveral molecular crystals containing the 3 5 Cl and 7 5 As nuclei. The problems of reconstructing 2D-nutation NQR spectra using conventional methods and the advantages of using implementation of the maximum entropy method (MEM) are analyzed. It is shown that the replacement of conventional Fourier transform by an alternative data processing by MEM in 2D NQR spectroscopy leads to sensitivity improvement, reduction of instrumental artefacts and truncation errors, shortened data acquisition times and suppression of noise, while at the same time increasing the resolution. The effects of off-resonance irradiation in nutation experiments are demonstrated both experimentally and theoretically. It is shown that off-resonance nutation spectroscopy is a useful extension of the conventional on-resonance experiments, thus facilitating the determination of asymmetry parameters in multiple spectrum. The theoretical description of the off-resonance effects in 2D nutation NQR spectroscopy is given, and general exact formulas for the asymmetry parameter are obtained. In off-resonance conditions, the resolution of the nutation NQR spectrum decreases with the spectrometer offset. However, an enhanced resolution can be achieved by using the maximum entropy method in 2D-data reconstruction.
