✍ 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

✍ Jonah N. Schupbach 📂 Library 📅 2022 🏛 Cambridge University Press 🌐 English

This Element explores the Bayesian approach to the logic and epistemology of scientific reasoning. Section 1 introduces the probability calculus as an appealing generalization of classical logic for uncertain reasoning. Section 2 explores some of the vast terrain of Bayesian epistemology. Three epis

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
