Admissibility in a Logical Framework
Theories of rational choice are often based on the assumption that the agent’s choices are reducible to a preference ordering on the set of alternatives. This assumption is reflected in work from a variety of disciplines including economics [19], psychology [15], and statistics [32], as well as in philosophy where the “logic of preference” is an established topic of study [12]. However, a persi...
متن کاملInference Rules in Nelson's Logics, Admissibility and Weak Admissibility
Our paper aims to investigate inference rules for Nelson’s logics and to discuss possible ways to determine admissibility of inference rules in such logics. We will use the technique offered originally for intuitionistic logic and paraconsistent minimal Johannson’s logic. However, the adaptation is not an easy and evident task since Nelson’s logics do not enjoy replacement of equivalences rule....
متن کاملWhy the Decision-Theoretic Perspective Misrepresents Frequentist Inference: Revisiting Stein’s paradox and Admissibility
The primary objective of this paper is to make a case that R.A. Fisher’s objections to the decision-theoretic framing of frequentist inference are not without merit. It is argued that this framing is congruent with the Bayesian but incongruent with the frequentist approach; it provides the former with a theory of optimal inference but misrepresents the optimality theory of the latter. Decision-...
متن کاملA paradox: Midwives’ Experiences of Attending a Birth Resulting in Maternal Death in a Ghanaian Context
Background & aim: In a lower-middle income country, such as Ghana, maternal death still occurs even in case of providing skilled perinatal care. The impact of maternal death on the family, community, and society has been largely studied. However, its implications for midwifery practice in Ghana has not been extensively investigated. The purpose of this study was to exp...
متن کاملAdmissibility in Concurrent Games∗†
In this paper, we study the notion of admissibility for randomised strategies in concurrent games. Intuitively, an admissible strategy is one where the player plays ‘as well as possible’, because there is no other strategy that dominates it, i.e., that wins (almost surely) against a superset of adversarial strategies. We prove that admissible strategies always exist in concurrent games, and we ...
