Bernoulli and Ars Conjectandi

Authors

Abstract:

There are two reasons that 2013 named as Statistics year. First, it was 300 year after written the book, Ars Conjectandi, by Bernoulli and the second, presentation of Bayes article 250 year ago. Hald (2007) beleive that the development period of Probability and Statistics is started from Bernoulli and ended by Fisher. This article expaline the role of Bernoulli book in Statistics.

The Significance of Jacob Bernoulli’s Ars Conjectandi

More than 300 years ago, in a fertile period from 1684 to 1689, Jacob Bernoulli worked out a strategy for applying the mathematics of games of chance to the domain of probability. That strategy came into public view in August 1705, eight years after Jacob's death at the age of 50, when his masterpiece, Ars Conjectandi., was published. Unfortunately, the message of Ars Conjectandi was not fully ...

Ars Informatica–Ars Electronica: Improving Sonification Aesthetics

In this paper we discuss æsthetic issues of sonifications. We posit that many sonifications have suffered from poor acoustic ecology which makes listening more difficult, thereby resulting in poorer data extraction and inference on the part of the listener. Lessons are drawn from the electro acoustic music community as we argue that it is not instructive to distinguish between sonifications and...

Congruences concerning Bernoulli numbers and Bernoulli polynomials

Let {Bn(x)} denote Bernoulli polynomials. In this paper we generalize Kummer’s congruences by determining Bk(p−1)+b(x)=(k(p − 1) + b) (modp), where p is an odd prime, x is a p-integral rational number and p − 1 b. As applications we obtain explicit formulae for ∑p−1 x=1 (1=x ) (modp ); ∑(p−1)=2 x=1 (1=x ) (modp ); (p − 1)! (modp ) and Ar(m;p) (modp), where k ∈ {1; 2; : : : ; p− 1} and Ar(m;p) i...

Inadvertent - Ars Accidentalis

Even though art is the product of an intentional act of fabrication, the serendipitous spill of an ink or paint, the unforeseen slip of a pen or brush, sudden shake of a camera in the analog realm have the potential of generating an unconscious lead in the planned course of action. The consequential shift in direction may completely change the aesthetics and content of an artwork. An artist sho...

Pelagonius, Ars Veterinaria

can be found in Arabic manuscripts. Robert Fludd called geomancy "terrestrial astrology" and, accordingly, some authors fit geomantic charts into astrological patterns, thereby deliberately abandoning some of the traditional correspondencies in astrology. The appendix gives the attributions by various authors, and even more importantly, the names and significations of the sixteen figures in Ara...

An ARS element from Drosophila melanogaster telomeres contains the yeast ARS core and bent replication enhancer.

We have sequenced the 0.7-kb-long fragment of Drosophila DNA which ensures the autonomous replication of plasmids in yeast. Deletion mapping has shown the ARS element to consist of at least two domains: the core having the consensus 11-bp sequence TAAATATAAAT and the enhancer which is no more than 90 bp long and is located at the 3'-end of the A-rich core strand. Neither domain per se ensures p...
