For all the deference to “laws” of nature that supposedly govern everything that happens, the truth is that randomness rules the world. Everywhere you look, randomness is at work, in all the processes ...
University of Surrey’s Prof Dorje C Brody makes the case for developing AI that follows quantum rules to get closer to the functioning of the human brain. Human behaviour is an enigma that fascinates ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract It is shown that quantum mechanics cannot be formulated as a stochastic theory involving a probability distribution function of position and ...
Probability theory has long provided a rigorous framework for quantifying uncertainty, yet its extension to infinite sets introduces profound conceptual challenges and opportunities. Contemporary ...
The conjunction and disjunction fallacies are famous for revealing the limits of human reasoning about probability. This can be measured by telling people a short story about a character and then ...

Classical real-valued probabilities come at a philosophical cost: in many infinite situations, they assign the same probability value—namely, zero—to cases that are impossible as well as to cases that ...
Welcome to the Non-Classical Probability: Formal Epistemology Meets Foundations of Physics workshop! This workshop will take place on 5 and 6 July 2022 at the University of Bristol, and is organised ...
