contents We present an analytical-numerical method providing robust upper estimates for the topological entropy or, more generally, uniform volume growth exponents of differentiable mappings. By introducing varying metrics, we simplify the analysis at the cost of generally rougher bounds, but keeping the prospect of choosing more relatable metrics to refine the estimates. With any covering of an invariant set by a finite number of cubes, we associate a graph describing overlaps (edges) of the cubes (vertices) under iterates of the mapping. Weighing vertices according to a given metric, we reduce the problem to finding simple cycles with maximal relative weights. Then we develop an algorithm concerned with iterative resolving nonlinear programming problems for optimization of maximal relative weights in general smooth families of metrics which may involve interpolation or neural networks models. We describe applications of the algorithm to compute the largest uniform Lyapunov exponent and uniform Lyapunov dimension for the Hénon and Rabinovich systems justifying the Eden conjecture at stationary and periodic points respectively.
