With this method, you can derive all of statistical mechanics from information theory with constraints originated from thermodynamics. The observation of thermodynamic quantities, which are high level observations on particles (i.e. related to means, etc., and not to individual particles), puts constraints of the same kind as the ones listed in this article. This approach was pioneered by Jaynes (1952) "Information theory and statistical mechanics, I": https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Information-Theory-and-Statistical-Mechanics-Jaynes/08b67692bc037eada8d3d7ce76cc70994e7c8116 https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Information-Theory-and...
