Abstract

The concept of probability is over two hundred years old and for the whole period of its existence there has been a dispute about its meaning as D.V. Lindley notes in the forword to [15]. There is the “frequentist interpretation” due to R. von Mises, B.de Finetti’s, and L.J. Savage’s “subjective view” of probability; R. Carnap’s “logical probability;” J.M.Keynes’, B.O.Koop-man’s and B. de Finetti’s “comparative probability,” and T. L. Fine’s “probabilistic reasoning.” These approaches seem to shift stochastics into the field of philosophy. Here, a more pragmatic or scientific view is taken, which explains a concept by its aims and effects and handles it by quantified measurement procedures, thus integrating stochastics into science. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
