Bayesian Rationality: The Probabilistic

📁 Bayesian Rationality: The Probabilistic Approach to Human Reasoning

✍ Mike Oaksford, Nick Chater 📂 Library 📅 2007 🏛 Oxford University Press 🌐 English

Are people rational? This question was central to Greek thought; and has been at the heart of psychology, philosophy, rational choice in social sciences, and probabilistic approaches to artificial intelligence. This book provides a radical re-appraisal of conventional wisdom in the psychology of rea

Bayesian Brain: Probabilistic Approaches

📁 Bayesian Brain: Probabilistic Approaches to Neural Coding (Computational Neuroscience)

✍ Kenji Doya, Shin Ishii, Alexandre Pouget, Rajesh P. N. Rao 📂 Library 📅 2007 🏛 The MIT Press 🌐 English

A Bayesian approach can contribute to an understanding of the brain on multiple levels, by giving normative predictions about how an ideal sensory system should combine prior knowledge and observation, by providing mechanistic interpretation of the

✍ Colin Howson, Peter Urbach 📂 Library 📅 2006 🏛 Open Court 🌐 English

In this clearly reasoned defense of Bayes's Theorem — that probability can be used to reasonably justify scientific theories — Colin Howson and Peter Urbach examine the way in which scientists appeal to probability arguments, and demonstrate that the classical approach to statistical inference is fu
