A Fuzzy Take on the Logical Issues of Statistical Hypothesis Testing
Philosophies, 2021 Statistical Hypothesis Testing (SHT) is a class of inference methods whereby one makes use of empirical data to test a hypothesis and often emit a judgment about whether to reject it or not. In this paper, we focus on the logical aspect of this strategy,

Logic and Probability in Physics* [PDF]
Nature, 1938 General philosophy claims to be the critical subject which lays down for all of us what we may be allowed to think, and yet it has played no part whatever in the great revolutions of human thought of the present century—those connected with relativity and the quantum theory.

Estimating Probability of Gas Breakdown Using Grey-Fuzzy Logic
Advances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2013 Designing the protection system of high voltage power systems involves elucidating the properties of gas breakdown. This work presents a simplified mathematical approach based on grey and fuzzy methods to estimate the probability of gas breakdown ...

Quantum geometry, logic and probability
Zagadnienia Filozoficzne w Nauce, 2020 Quantum geometry on a discrete set means a directed graph with a weight associated to each arrow defining the quantum metric. However, these ‘lattice spacing’ weights do not have to be independent of the direction of the arrow.
