In probability theory, Bayesian statistics, artificial intelligence and database theory the minimum cross-entropy principle is often used to estimate a distribution with a given set P of marginal distributions under the proportionality assumption with respect to a given “prior” distribution q . Such an estimation problem admits a solution if and only if there exists an extension of P that is dominated by q . In this paper we consider the case that q is not given explicitly, but is specified...
