Abstract

The aim of this note is to establish some connections between Wilson's gravity model, Jaynes' principle of maximum entropy, Kullback's divergence, Watanabe's measure of connection, the minimum information principle of Snickars and Weibull and Guiasu's principle of minimum interdependence as a special form of Kullback's minimum divergence. A slight generalization of Wilson's gravity model is proposed.
