Citing MaxEnt

[bwsmith1]

I'm trying to figure out to cite the actual program of MaxEnt for my
thesis. Could anyone help me out?

I think it is enough to just cite Phillips et al 2004/06/08 and state that you used the program. You could also include the web address where it's downloadable.

cheers,

Here is how we have cited it in a published paper-

"We used Maxent (version 3.1; http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~schapire/maxent/; Phillips et al. 2004, 2006)..."

Phillips, S. J., Dudik, M. & Schapire, R.E. 2004. A maximum entropy approach to species distribution modeling. Pages 655-662 in Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Machine Learning. ACM Press, New York
