Instruments and Systems: Monitoring, Control, and Diagnostics Annotation << Back Construction of continuous and discrete distribution laws for risk assessment in information systems Yu.Yu. GROMOV, O.G. IVANOVA, Yu.V. MININ, H.L. MAJEED Generalized expressions for the distribution laws with maximum entropy are obtained. It is shown that in the general case the entropy depends also on the type of moments used to determine the numerical characteristics of the distribution law. Generalized expressions for distribution laws are successfully used to solve problems of risk assessment in information systems. Probabilistic models for the analysis of a sequence of independent trials with three outcomes have been developed, expressions for their basic numerical characteristics have been obtained, as well as for calculating the probabilities of occurrence of the corresponding events.
