Gongnet, E. E., Vihotogbé, R., Agbangba, C. E., Affossogbé, T., Djondang, K., & Kakaï, R. G. (2025). Impact of box-cox transformation technique on the Bayesian maximum entropy (BME) prediction accuracy . JP Journal of Biostatistics, 25(1), 127-144.

This study investigated whether increasing the normality of an attribute using Box-Cox transformation improves Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) prediction accuracy. Furthermore, we examined if BME accuracy is affected by sample size or spatial dependence.
