Basic Elements and Problems of Probability Theory
After a brief review of ontic and epistemic descriptions, and of subjective, logical and statistical interpretations of probability, we summarize the traditional axiomatization of calculus of probability in terms of Boolean algebras and its set-theoretical realization in terms of Kolmogorov probability spaces. Since the axioms of mathematical probability theory say nothing about the conceptual ...
متن کاملProbability Methods in Some Problems of Analysis and Number Theory
An address delivered before the Annual Meeting of the Society in Columbus, Ohio, on December 28, 1948, by invitation of the Committee to Select Hour Speakers for Annual and Summer Meetings; received by the editors November 1, 1948. 1 Numbers in brackets refer to the references cited at the end of the paper. 2 Here, as in the sequel, E { } denotes the set of ^s satisfying the condition inside th...
متن کاملProbability metrics applied to problems in portfolio theory
In the paper, we consider the application of the theory of probability metrics in several areas in the field of finance. First, we argue that specially structured probability metrics can be used to quantify stochastic dominance relations. Second, the methods of the theory of probability metrics can be used to arrive at a general axiomatic treatment of dispersion measures and probability metrics...
متن کاملFoundations of Probability Theory for AI - The Application of Algorithmic Probability to Problems in Artificial Intelligence
INTRODUCTION I This paper covers two topics• first an introduction to Algorithmic Complexity Theoryl how it defines probability, some of its characteristic properties and past successful a pplications. Second, we apply it to problems in A.I. where it promises to give near optimum search procedures for two very broad classes of problems. Algorithmic probability of a string, s, is the probability...
متن کاملProbability in GRW theory
GRW theory postulates a stochastic mechanism assuring that every so often the wave function of a quantum system is ‘hit’, which leaves it in a localised state. How are we to interpret the probabilities built into this mechanism? GRW theory is a firmly realist proposal and it is therefore clear that these probabilities are objective probabilities (i.e. chances). A discussion of the major theorie...
