-- Initial maxent.cabal generated by cabal init. For further -- documentation, see http://haskell.org/cabal/users-guide/ -- The name of the package. name: maxent version: 0.7 -- A short (one-line) description of the package. synopsis: Compute Maximum Entropy Distributions -- A longer description of the package. description: The maximum entropy method, or MAXENT, is variational approach for computing probability distributions given a list of moment, or expected value, constraints. . Here are some links for background info. . A good overview of applications: . On the idea of maximum entropy in general: . Use this package to compute discrete maximum entropy distributions over a list of values and list of constraints. . Here is a the example from Probability the Logic of Science . >> maxent 0.00001 [1,2,3] [average 1.5] > Right [0.61, 0.26, 0.11] . The classic dice example . >> maxent 0.00001 [1,2,3,4,5,6] [average 4.5] > Right [.05, .07, 0.11, 0.16, 0.23, 0.34] . One can use different constraints besides the average value there. -- URL for the project homepage or repository. homepage: https://github.com/jfischoff/maxent -- The license under which the package is released. license: BSD3 -- The file containing the license text. license-file: LICENSE -- The package author(s). author: (c) Jonathan Fischoff 2012-2014, (c) Eric Pashman 2014 -- An email address to which users can send suggestions, bug reports, and -- patches. maintainer: jonathangfischoff@gmail.com -- A copyright notice. -- copyright: category: Math build-type: Simple -- Constraint on the version of Cabal needed to build this package. cabal-version: >=1.12 library ghc-options: -Wall -- Modules exported by the library. exposed-modules: Numeric.MaxEnt -- Modules included in this library but not exported. other-modules: Numeric.MaxEnt.Internal, Numeric.MaxEnt.Linear, Numeric.MaxEnt.ConjugateGradient Numeric.MaxEnt.Moment, Numeric.MaxEnt.General -- Other library packages from which modules are imported. build-depends: base >=4.5 && < 5, nonlinear-optimization == 0.3.*, vector == 0.10.*, ad >= 4 && < 5, lagrangian == 0.6.* -- Directories containing source files. hs-source-dirs: src default-language: Haskell2010 Test-Suite tests hs-source-dirs: src, tests type: exitcode-stdio-1.0 main-is: Main.hs build-depends: base >=4.5 && < 5, nonlinear-optimization ==0.3.*, vector ==0.10.*, ad >= 4 && < 5, hmatrix >= 0.14 && < 0.17, lagrangian == 0.6.*, QuickCheck, test-framework-quickcheck2 == 0.3.*, test-framework-quickcheck2 == 0.3.*, test-framework-hunit == 0.3.*, test-framework == 0.8.* default-language: Haskell2010
