The Emergence of Probability: A Philosophical Study of Early Ideas about Probability, Induction and Statistical Inference

The Emergence of Probability: A Philosophical Study of Early Ideas about Probability, Induction and Statistical Inference more books like this

by Ian Hacking

Historical records show that there was no real concept of probability in Europe before the mid-seventeenth century, although the use of dice and other randomizing objects was commonplace. Ian Hacking presents a philosophical critique of early ideas about probability, induction, and statistical inference and the growth of this new family of ideas ...

Statistical and Inductive Inference by Minimum Message Length

Statistical and Inductive Inference by Minimum Message Length more books like this

by C S Wallace

The Minimum Message Length (MML) Principle is an information-theoretic approach to induction, hypothesis testing, model selection, and statistical inference. MML, which provides a formal specification for the implementation of Occam's Razor, asserts that the 'best' explanation of observed data is the shortest. Further, an explanation is acceptable ...

Whitehead groups of finite groups

Whitehead groups of finite groups more books like this

by Oliver

This book's aim is to make accessible techniques for studying Whitehead groups of finite groups, as well as a variety of related topics such as induction theory and p-adic logarithms. The author has included a lengthy introduction to set the scene for non-specialists who want an overview of the field, its history and its applications. The rest of ...

Mathematical Reasoning with Diagrams

Mathematical Reasoning with Diagrams more books like this

by Mateja Jamnik

Mathematicians at every level use diagrams to prove theorems. "Mathematical Reasoning with Diagrams" investigates the possibilities of mechanizing this sort of diagrammatic reasoning in a formal computer proof system, even offering a semi-automatic formal proof system - called Diamond - which allows users to prove arithmetical theorems using ...

Computable Economics

Computable Economics more books like this

by Kumaraswamy Velupillai

In the field of economic analysis, computability in the formation of economic hypotheses is seen as the way forward. In this book, Professor Velupillai implements a theoretical research program along these lines. Choice theory, learning rational expectations equlibria, the persistence of adaptive behaviour, arithmetical games, aspects of ...

Automated Mathematical Induction

Automated Mathematical Induction more books like this

by H Zhang, Zhang Hantao Zhang (Editor)

In the 1970s, Boyer and Moore built one of the first automated theorem provers that was capable of proofs by mathematical induction. Today, the Boyer-Moore theorem prover remains the most successful in the field. For a long time, the research on automated mathematical induction was confined to very few people. In recent years, as more people ...

Optimum Inductive Methods

Optimum Inductive Methods more books like this

by Roberto Festa

The problem of the choice of prior probabilities for Bayesian inferences is considered, with special reference to the theory of inductive probabilities and the analysis of the multinomial inferences provided by Bayesian statistics. Among other things, it is argued that the choice of prior probabilities in a given empirical inquiry should be ...

Non-Additive Exact Functors and Tensor Induction for Mackey Functors more books like this

by Serge Bouc

First I will introduce a generalization of the notion of (right)-exact functor between abelian categories to the case of non-additive functors. The main result of this selection is an extension theorem: any functor defined on a suitable subcategory can be extended uniquely to a right exact functor defined on the whole category. Next I use those ...
