Probability Theory As Extended Logic
Last Modified Edwin T. Jaynes was one of the first people to realize that probability theory, as originated by Laplace, is a generalization of Aristotelian logic that reduces to deductive logic in the special case that our hypotheses are either true or false. This web site has been established to help promote this interpretation of probability theory by distributing articles, books and related material. As Ed Jaynes originated this interpretation of probability theory we have a large selection of his articles, as well as articles by a number of other people who use probability theory in this way:
  • E. T. Jaynes: Amazon here in the US. It is also available directly from Cambridge. and from Amazon in the UK. We still have a selection of Dr. Jaynes' articles , and the first three chapters from Jaynes' book on probability theory are now online as a pdf file or as a postscript file. A typed publication quality version of his unpublished book titled "Probability Theory, With Applications in Science and Engineering" that was being prepared for publication in the mid 1970's is available.

Infinite Dimensional Analysis, Quantum Probability and Related Topics (IDAQP)
In the past few years the fields of infinite dimensional analysis and quantum probability have undergone increasingly significant developments and have found many new applications, in particular, to classical probability and to different branches of physics. The number of first-class papers in these fields has grown at the same rate. This is currently the only journal which is devoted to these fields. More What's New According to the 2002 ISI Journal Citation Reports, IDAQP is ranked 20th among 71 journals in Statistics and Probability, 19th among 29 journals in Mathematical Physics and 44th out of 156 journals in Applied Mathematics.

For a review of concepts, see Permutations and Combinations. The study of probability helps us figure out the likelihood of something happening. For instance, when you roll a pair of dice, you might ask how likely you are to roll a seven. In math, we call the "something happening" an "event." The probability of the occurrence of an event can be expressed as a fraction or a decimal from to 1. Events that are unlikely will have a probability near 0, and events that are likely to happen have probabilities near 1.* In any probability problem, it is very important to identify all the different outcomes that could occur. For instance, in the question about the dice, you must figure out all the different ways the dice could land, and all the different ways you could roll a seven. * Note that when you're dealing with an infinite number of possible events, an event that could conceivably happen might have probability zero. Consider the example of picking a random number between 1 and 10 - what is the probability that you'll pick 5.0724? It's zero, but it could happen.

Programme theme
As Computer Science has matured as a discipline, its relationships with mathematics have become both more wide ranging and more profound. The programme will explore two particularly fruitful interfaces between computer science and mathematics, namely those with combinatorics and probability theory. Although no interdisciplinary work within the broad area delineated by the title will be excluded, the following themes will receive special emphasis.
  • Randomised algorithms.
    The design and analysis of algorithms that make random choices; also deterministic algorithms when run on random instances.The theoretical basis here includes the study of parameters connected with random walks on graphs and the relationships between them. "Phase transitions" in statistical physics and computer science.

Combining Probability and Logic
4th Augustus de Morgan Workshop
King's College London
4th - 6th November 2002 How is probability related to logic?
Should probability and logic be combined?
If so, how? Bayesianism tells us we ought to reason probabilistically. In that sense, probability theory is logic. How then does probability theory relate to classical logic and the various non-classical logics that also stake a claim on normative reasoning? Is probability theory to be preferred over other logics or vice versa? Is probability theory to be used in some situations, and the other logics in other situations? Or should probability be combined with other logics? These questions were important in the time of Augustus de Morgan. Indeed de Morgan himself argued that Aristotelian logic was unnecessarily restrictive in scope, and with his contemporary George Boole he began to broaden its horizons, initiating a rennaissance in logic. The title of his most important book bears witness to his vision of a comprehensive logic encompassing probability: "Formal Logic; or the calculus of Inference, Necessary, and Probable". While the above questions are not new, we now urgently require some answers. Artificial intelligence is one key discipline in which probability theory competes with other logics for application. It is becoming vitally important to evaluate and integrate systems that are based on very different approaches to reasoning, and there is strong demand for theoretical understanding of the relationships between these approaches.

72. Probabilistic Causation
Probabilistic Causation designates a group of philosophical theories that aim to characterize the relationship between cause and effect using the tools of probability theory. A primary motivation for the development of such theories is the desire for a theory of causation that does not presuppose physical determinism.

    1.2 Imperfect Regularities
    The first difficulty is that most causes are not invariably followed by their effects. For example, it is widely accepted that smoking is a cause of lung cancer, but it is also recognized that not all smokers develop lung cancer. (Likewise, not all non-smokers are spared the ravages of that disease.) By contrast, the central idea behind probabilistic theories of causation is that causes raise the probability of their effects; an effect may still occur in the absence of a cause or fail to occur in its presence. Thus smoking is a cause of lung cancer, not because all smokers develop lung cancer, but because smokers are

Combinatorics and Probability Analysis for Bridge Hands
(Includes how to calculate the results and computer source code) The following sections cover several aspects of Bridge probabilities and combinatorics. Each section has a link that gives the statistical results and another link that shows how the results are calculated. The "How to" sections give both a generalized description of the calculations and algorithm as well as the "C" source code.
Math Symbols/Notation:
Use this link for explanations of the math symbols used. Generally, we will use math notation as expressed/used in Microsoft's Excel spreadsheets.
Bidding Combinatorics: Statistics "How to" calculations There are 1.28746 E+47 (Scientific notation for 128+ billion billion billion billion billion (American billion = 1,000,000,000)) different ways to bid after the cards have been dealt. Most of these sequences are nonsensical, but they are legal, hence they must be counted. This is about 2.4 billion billion times larger than the number of ways that four hands can be dealt from a deck of cards. (Total number of possible deals = FACT(52) / ((FACT(13)^4) = 5.36447 E+28) (Note: The order of the cards in a bridge hand is not relevant.)
Bidding combinatorics for a hand is divided into 3 parts. Part one is just to 3 "Passes" before someone mentions a quantity (1 - 7) and a suit (or No Trump). Part 2 contains all quantity and suit bids (We will count suit bids for the stats output) through the last "quantity-suit" bid. This will include all possible intervening bids of "pass", "double", and "redouble". Part 3 comes after the last "quantity-suit" bid, and the only words allowed are "pass", "double", and "redouble".
