Quantum Probabilities as Behavioral Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
We demonstrate that behavioral probabilities of human decision makers share many common features with quantum probabilities. This does not imply that humans are some quantum objects, but just shows that the mathematics of quantum theory is applicable to the description of human decision making. The applicability of quantum rules for describing decision

Identification of probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Psychology, 2017
Within psychology, neuroscience and artificial intelligence, there has been increasing interest in the proposal that the brain builds probabilistic models of sensory and linguistic input: that is, to infer a probabilistic model from a sample.

Probability, propensity and probability of propensities (and of probabilities) [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
Invited contribution to the proceedings MaxEnt 2016 based on the talk given at the workshop (Ghent, Belgium, 10-15 July 2016), supplemented by work done within the program Probability and Statistics in Forensic Science at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences ...

Lexicographic probability, conditional probability, and nonstandard probability [PDF]

open access: yesGames and Economic Behavior, 2010
The relationship between Popper spaces (conditional probability spaces that satisfy some regularity conditions), lexicographic probability systems (LPS's), and nonstandard probability spaces (NPS's) is considered. If countable additivity is assumed, Popper spaces and a subclass of LPS's are equivalent; without the assumption of countable additivity ...

Angles as Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Mathematical Monthly, 2009
We use a probabilistic interpretation of solid angles to generalize the well-known fact that the inner angles of a triangle sum to 180 degrees. For the 3-dimensional case, we show that the sum of the solid inner vertex angles of a tetrahedron T, divided by 2*pi, gives the probability that an orthogonal projection of T onto a random 2-plane is a ...

Algorithmic probability

open access: yesScholarpedia, 2007
Algorithmic "Solomonoff" Probability (AP) assigns to objects an a priori probability that is in some sense universal. This prior distribution has theoretical applications in a number of areas, including inductive inference theory and the time complexity analysis of algorithms.

Infinitesimal Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesThe British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2018
Non-Archimedean probability functions allow us to combine regularity with perfect additivity. We discuss the philosophical motivation for a particular choice of axioms for a non-Archimedean probability theory and answer some philosophical objections that have been raised against infinitesimal probabilities in general.

Personal probabilities of probabilities [PDF]

open access: yesTheory and Decision, 1975
By definition, the subjective probability distribution of a random event is revealed by the (‘rational’) subject's choice between bets — a view expressed by F. Ramsey, B. De Finetti, L. J. Savage and traceable to E. Borel and, it can be argued, to T. Bayes.
