Randomness and Coincidences: Reconciling Intuition and Probability Theory
We argue that the apparent inconsistency between people’s intuitions about chance and the normative predictions of probability theory, as expressed in judgments about randomness and coincidences, can be resolved by focussing on the evidence observations provide about the processes that generated them, rather than their likelihood. This argument is supported by probabilistic modeling of sequence...
متن کاملReconciling Precision and Scale in Monitoring Urban Land Cover Changes with Satellite Imagery
Ever increasing advances in the resolution of satellite imagery are matched by commensurate increases in the expectations of the precision of the results emanating from the interpretation of such imagery. This is particularly apparent in the case of urban planning applications of remote sensing techniques to the monitoring of land use changes at a local territorial scale. Clearly it is unreason...
متن کاملPrecision medicine, technologies, and molecular diagnostics
Introduction: Genetics, cellular and molecular medicines are cutting-edge sciences and technologies that play an important role in improving human health and quality of life. In addition, medical and biological sciences have clearly shown that the onset of diseases differs from person to person due to their different genetic profiles and variations in molecular basis. Therefore, it is feasible ...
متن کاملω-Change Randomness and Weak Demuth Randomness
We extend our work on difference randomness. Each component of a difference test is a Boolean combination of two r.e. open sets; here we consider tests in which the k component is a Boolean combination of g(k) r.e. open sets for a given recursive function g. We use this method to produce an alternate characterization of weak Demuth randomness in terms of these tests and further show that a real...
متن کاملRandomness and Pseudo-Randomness in Discrete Mathematics
The discovery, demonstrated in the early work of Paley, Zygmund, Erdős, Kac, Turán, Shannon, Szele and others, that deterministic statements can be proved by probabilistic reasoning, led already in the first half of the century to several striking results in Analysis, Number Theory, Combinatorics and Information Theory. It soon became clear that the method, which is now called the probabilistic...
