The theory is developed around four different theses concerning respectively: the objective nature of probability in physics, the key role played by transition probabilities in modelling statistical phenomena, the apparent redundancy of philosoadduction 发表于 2025-3-24 07:59:16
Probability and Time Symmetry in Classical Markov Processespical examples of time-directed behaviour can be described using time-symmetric transition probabilities. Some current arguments in favour of a distinction between past and future on the basis of probabilistic considerations are thereby seen to be invalid.altruism 发表于 2025-3-24 13:36:58
Probability Assignments and the Principle of Indifference. An Examination of Two Eliminative Strategiesophers and scientists alike. This hostility has a twofold motivation. On one hand, there are the well-known inconsistencies (Bertrand paradoxes) to which the use of the principle leads. On the other, there are some general metaphysical and epistemological worries regarding the principle’s support fo金桌活画面 发表于 2025-3-24 15:22:56

On Explanation in Retro-causal Interpretations of Quantum Mechanicsin his celebrated theorem, granted some plausible premises any quantum theory will predict the existence of such non-local influences. One of the theorem’s premises is that the probability distribution of the states that systems may assume is independent of the measurements that they undergo at a la
