Thus, ω by ω, the properties above hold for conditional expectations3. But the assumption that conditional probability exists is ...

A theory which assigns probabilities to these sentences in a systematic fashion may still be found wanting on empirical grounds; but at least it would lend itself to empirical verification in the ...

Savage’s assessment of Cedric Smith’s foundational paper of the statistical approach to approximate reasoning (Walley 1991), we attempted to show that the way de Finetti defended his position against Smith’s demonstration that interval-valued probabilities may be derived from choice behaviour—Smith ...

... Two immediate consequences follow from this view. First, probability depends on the extent of one’s knowledge, also sometimes referred to as a knowledge base. A given event or proposition may be known to be true for one individual (who, arguably, would give this proposition a value p = 1), but not s ...

Paradoxes Of Probability Theory
... where R denotes the ratio R = M=N . Substituting (15{7) and (15{9) into (15{5), it is evident that the condition for conglomerability is always satis ed, as it must be, whatever the values of (M; N ). How, then can one possibly create a nonconglomerability out of this? Just pass to the limit M ! 1; ...

On one hand, it provides the fundamental principles for building probability metrics — the means of measuring such distances. On the other, it studies the relationships between various ...
