On the Foundations of Probability Theory
1967My paper will deal with some aspects of the foundations of objective probability theory, more specifically, of the frequency theory of objective probability (see p. 207 for a closer description of our aim). The word ‘objective’ is used in contrast to ‘subjective’ or ‘personal’, and ‘theory’ indicates that we do not plan an analysis of the daily-life ...

Foundations of the Theory of Probability and the Theory of Errors
1973Random event. If a certain event, in given circumstances, may occur or may not occur, then it is called a random event. The probability of a random event is a quantitative estimation of the probability of its occurrence.

On the Foundations of the Theory of Probabilities
Philosophy of Science, 1934The foundation of the mathematical theory of probabilities is still a controversial subject. There are schools of insufficient reasoning and of cogent reasoning, of a priori determination and of frequency determination, of subjective and of objective probability. Two main difficulties exist. The first is the definition of equally like events.

Foundation of Huygens' theory of probability
1983Si è guardato al trattato "De ratiociniis in ludo aleae" di Huygens come a una teoria del giusto valore di ogni situazione di gioco giustificata razionalmente sulla base della possibilità di attribuire un prezzo equo a giochi particolarmente semplici. Si è indicato come esso non sia un'applicazione del calcolo delle probabilità ai giochi d'azzardo,

Foundations of Probability Theory and Statistical Mechanics
1967Scientific theories are invented and cared for by people ; and so have the properties of any other human institution — vigorous growth when all the factors are right; stagnation, decadence, and even retrograde progress when they are not. And the factors that determine which it will be are seldom the ones (such as the state of experimental or ...

On The Logical Foundations of Probability Theory
1992When we talk about random events in the everyday sense of the word, we mean phenomena in which we do not find any regularities that would allow us to predict their behaviour. Generally speaking, there are no reasons to suggest that events random in this sense obey any probability laws.

Ergodic Theory and the Foundations of Probability
1988In the following, I shall illustrate through examples how useful the notions and results of ergodic theory are for the foundations of probability. Ergodic theory can be discussed from many points of view. It originated with the development of statistical mechanics in classical physics.

Foundation of Probability Theory and Discrete-Time Martingales
2018Gambling with dice was very popular in medieval Europe. The study of problems involving probability associated with gambling led to the development of probability theory. However, it was not until the early twentieth century that probability theory was considered as a branch of mathematics.
