A necessary condition for incompatibility of observables in general probabilistic theories [PDF]
Phys. Rev. A 95, 032127 (2017), 2016 We quantify the intrinsic noise content of an observable in a general probabilistic theory and derive a noise content inequality for incompatible observables. We apply the derived inequality to standard quantum theory, the quantum theory of processes, and polytope state spaces.

Replacing Nothing with Something Special: Contextuality-by-Default and Dummy Measurements [PDF]
A. Khrennikov & T. Bourama (Eds) Quantum Foundations, Probability
and Information, pp. 39-44. Berlin: Springer, 2018, 2017 The object of contextuality analysis is a set of random variables each of which is uniquely labeled by a content and a context. In the measurement terminology, the content is that which the random variable measures, whereas the context describes the conditions under which this content is measured (in particular, the set of other contents being measured
