Probabilities in Science
... Since Pr(p) * Pr(q/p) = Pr(q) * Pr(p/q), then (dividing through by Pr(q) & reversing the order): Bayes: Pr (p/q) = Pr (p) * Pr(q/p) / Pr(q) This is an important result because it says something about how we should respond to evidence. This is particularly clear if we think in terms of predictions th ...

An Introduction to Probability Theory - CAMP-TUM
... Probability theory is concerned with describing random phenomena mathematically. A basic concept is the probabilistic experiment. It is a repeatable experiment with the property that it is not possible to predict the outcome. Accordingly, we refer to a random quantity as the outcome of a probabilist ...
