An Alert-Confirm Approach To Track Confirmation

2018 52nd Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers, 2018
A tracker sets thresholds to confirm tentative tracks which affect the probabilities of both detecting a track and of declaring a false track. We propose a confirmation strategy inspired by the alert-confirm approach for sensor-level detection in electronically scanned radar.

On confirmation

Journal of Symbolic Logic, 1940
Taking for the relation of confirmation the following obvious axioms, we obtain several more or less well-known theorems and are able to solve in a definite and strict manner several problems concerning confirmation.Let a, b, and c be variable names of sentences belonging to a certain class, the operations a·b, a + b, and ā the (syntactical) product ...

Tracking Confirmation

Philosophy of Science, 2021
Confirmation is a graded notion: evidence can confirm a hypothesis to a greater or lesser degree. There has been debate about how to measure degree of confirmation. Starting from the observation that we would like evidence to be a discriminating indicator of truth, we conduct computer simulations to determine how well the various known measures of ...

Dwindling Confirmation

Philosophy of Science, 2014
We show that as a chain of confirmation becomes longer, confirmation dwindles under screening-off. For example, if E confirms H1, H1 confirms H2, and H1 screens off E from H2, then the degree to which E confirms H2 is less than the degree to which E confirms H1.

Contradiction and confirmation

1993
In most expert systems, efforts are made to keep the rules in the knowledge base free from contradictions., because a logical system that generates even a single contradiction may collapse. We argue that not only can contradictions be tolerated, but in fact they are useful.

Bayesian Confirmation or Ordinary Confirmation?

Studia Logica, 2019
This article reveals one general scheme for creating counter examples to Bayesian confirmation theory. The reason of the problems is that: in daily life the degree of confirmation is affected not only by probability but also by some non-probabilistic factors, e.g., structural similarity, quantity of evidence, and marginal utility, while Bayesian ...

Confirmation theory

2018
The result of a test of a general hypothesis can be positive, negative or neutral. The first, qualitative, task of confirmation theory is to explicate these types of test result. However, as soon as one also takes individual hypotheses into consideration, the interest shifts to the second, quantitative, task of confirmation theory: probabilistically ...
