Lecture 9: Bayesian hypothesis testing
... Before we go into the details of Bayesian hypothesis testing, let us briefly review frequentist hypothesis testing. Recall that in the Neyman-Pearson paradigm characteristic of frequentist hypothesis testing, there is an asymmetric relationship between two hypotheses: the null hypothesis H0 and the ...

Learning and designing stochastic processes from logical constraints
... Conceptually, both model checking and statistical model checking start from the premise that a CTMC model of the system is entirely specified, i.e. the underlying parameters of the CTMC are known exactly. This is generally not true: it is certainly never true when employing CTMCs as models of physic ...

Probability box
),steps=500.png?width=300)
A probability box (or p-box) is a characterization of an uncertain number consisting of both aleatoric and epistemic uncertainties that is often used in risk analysis or quantitative uncertainty modeling where numerical calculations must be performed. Probability bounds analysis is used to make arithmetic and logical calculations with p-boxes.An example p-box is shown in the figure at right for an uncertain number x consisting of a left (upper) bound and a right (lower) bound on the probability distribution for x. The bounds are coincident for values of x below 0 and above 24. The bounds may have almost any shapes, including step functions, so long as they are monotonically increasing and do not cross each other. A p-box is used to express simultaneously incertitude (epistemic uncertainty), which is represented by the breadth between the left and right edges of the p-box, and variability (aleatory uncertainty), which is represented by the overall slant of the p-box.
