Maximum Entropy Modeling

Maximum Entropy Modeling is a statistical modeling framework within habitat suitability analysis that belongs to the class of presence-only species distribution models and is distinguished by its use of the principle of maximum entropy to estimate the most uniform probability distribution of species occurrences given environmental constraints and observed presence data.
