Inhaltsangabe

Inference, the basis for human and machine information processing, leads to decision-making in all situations involving probabilistic reasoning. This study applies the basis of this subject to the field of artificial intelligence, providing a balanced view of different approaches.

Reseña del editor

A detailed treatment regarding the diverse properties and uses of evidence and the judgmental tasks they entail. Examines various processes by which evidence may be developed or discovered. Considers the construction of arguments made in defense of the relevance and credibility of individual items and masses of evidence as well as the task of assessing the inferential force of evidence. Includes over 100 numerical examples to illustrate the workings of diverse probabilistic expressions for the inferential force of evidence and the subtleties they reveal.
