Abstract
The method of maximum statistical entropy (to be distinguished from the more usual maximum configurational entropy) is explained for a general inverse problem. Application to the biomagnetic situation then yields a solution which, in the limit as the available information becomes zero, gives the minimum-power current distribution. The method is developed in detail for the case of a uniform sphere.Keywords
