After the Appointment Ceremony, Professor Vijay P. Singh presented a thematic report entitled "Entropy Theory and Its Application in Hydrology". Based on the information entropy, maximum entropy principle and normative constraints, the report proposed the practical application of entropy theory in mathematical statistics to solve hydrological problems, and pointed out that entropy theory can carry out probability description and uncertainty analysis on hydrological models with some clear examples, which has an important impact on sampling and improving the reliability of models.
