Abstract
The problem of entropy estimation of probability density functions with allowance for real data is posed (the maximum entropy estimation (MEE) problem). Global existence conditions for the implicit dependence of Lagrange multipliers on data collection are obtained. The asymptotic efficiency of maximum entropy estimates is proved.
