Exchangeability in Probability Logic

  • Conference paper
Book cover Advances in Computational Intelligence (IPMU 2012)

Abstract

The paper investigates exchangeability in the context of probability logic. We study generalizations of basic inference rules and inferences involving cardinalities. We compare the results with those obtained in the case in which only identical probabilities are assumed.
