... set of all the nodes is denoted by V={1,2,…,L} and the set of all the neighbouring pairs of nodes is denoted by E. A random variable Fi is assigned at each node i and takes every integer in the set {0,1,2,…,Q-1} . The joint probability distribution of the provability vector F=(F1,F2,…,FL)T is given ...

Misuse of statistics
... If a research team wants to know how 300 million people feel about a certain topic, it would be impractical to ask all of them. However, if the team picks a random sample of about 1000 people, they can be fairly certain that the results given by this group are representative of what the larger group ...

... Errors of the first and second kind are assumed to result in non-negative stopping losses of K0 and K1 respectively. For j = 2, . . . , N0 , the expected cost of stopping after observing Xj is thus min(K0 p0j , K1 p1j ). In the (j, xj ) plane, we are thus indifferent between the two hypotheses at po ...

Classical Probability and Quantum Outcomes
... Notably this is not a classical probability assumption, but part of the usual quantum formalism. To describe it, consider a quantum system and any three projectors, A, B, C, such that the pairs (A, B) and (B, C) commute. Then it is standard that the probability of an outcome for B is the same in eac ...
