چکیده
We give some simple examples of applying the well-known elementary probability theory inequalities and properties in field logical argumentation. A probabilistic version hypothetical syllogism inference rule is as follows: if propositions A, B, C, A→B, B→C have probabilities a, b, c, r, s, respectively, then for p A→C, we f(a,b,c,r,s)≤p≤g(a,b,c,r,s), functions f g given parameters. In this paper, after a short overview known rules related to conjunction disjunction, proposed probabilized forms rule, with best possible bounds conclusion, covering simultaneously versions both modus ponens tollens rules, already considered by Suppes, Hailperin, Wagner.

Probability and Expectation Inequalities
This paper introduces a mathematical framework within which a wide variety of known and new inequalities can be viewed from a common perspective. Probability and expectation inequalities of the following types are considered: (a) P(ZEA) ~ P(Z'EA) for some class of sets A, (b) Ek(Z) ~ Ek(Z') for some class of functions k, and (c) Et(Z) ~ Ek(Z') for some class of pairs of functions t and k. It is...
متن کاملProbability Logic and Logical Probability
Many writers who entertain the use of subjective probability or credal probability for, among other things, the evaluation of expected values of options in decision problems insist that such credal probability judgments should be determined by the agent’s “available evidence” or “available knowledge”. Notable 20 century examples are H. Jeffreys (1921, 1951), J.M. Keynes (1921), R. Carnap (1950,...
متن کاملProbability logic
Introduction Among logicians it is well-known that Leibniz was the first to conceive of a mathematical treatment of logic. Much less known, however, was his insistence that there was need for a new kind of logic that would treat of degrees of probability. Although it isn't clear what Leibniz had in mind for such a logic—understandably, since the subject of probability had just begun in his life...
متن کاملSome Basic Probability
In the previous section of the notes, we noted that a random experiment was defined by a procedure and an observation, and that the sample set was the set of all possible observations. For the purposes of computing probabilities, it is often convenient to define the observations in such a way that the outcomes can be assumed to be equally probable.1 The advantage of a sample space with equiprob...
متن کاملMultiscale probability transformation of basic probability assignment
Decision making is still an open issue in the application of Dempster-Shafer evidence theory. A lot of works have been presented for it. In the transferable belief model (TBM), pignistic probabilities based on the basic probability assignments are used for decision making. In this paper, multiscale probability transformation of basic probability assignment based on the belief function and the p...
