Measurement as Inference: Fundamental Ideas
... Now suppose that A implies B for some relevant pair of propositions, and in the course of contemplating A we happen to learn that B is true. What does this tell us about A? This question is quite different from those in deductive logic and belongs to the field of plausible inference that was richly ...

Problem 1. If we increase the length of each edge of a cube by 100
... Solution outline. Let us assign to each ordering a value H that denotes the number of (not necessary neighbouring) pairs such that the taller person stands behind the shorter one. Every step decreases H by at most one and if H > 0 then there exists a step that decreases it. In the beginning, H is at ...

Energy-Efficient Circuit Design
... 4. P (1 ) + P (2 ) ≥ 2P ( 1 2 ) for all 1 , 2 ∈ (0, 1/2). The first and third restrictions are natural, since they just require that the energy used decreases, but never becomes zero, as the probability of failure of a gate increases. The second property states that the energy must increase “q ...
