Abstract: We revisit the classical problem of inverting dimension-reducing linear mappings using the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) criterion. In the literature, solutions are problem-dependent, inconsistent, and use different entropy measures. We propose a new unified approach that not only specializes to the existing approaches, but offers solutions to new cases, such as when data values are constrained to [0, 1], which has new applications in machine learning.
