Theories of judicial decision-making that are grounded in rational choice theory are based on models of the process; hence, there is a mismatch between theory and practice. In contrast, several approaches have considered simple, logical rules for judicial decision-making, as the rule-based systems...
Ready to refresh your memory onGMAT probability rules? In this post, we will focus on probability questions involving the “at least” probability. The complement rule There is a very simple and very important rule relatingP(A)andP(not A), linking the probability of any event happening with...
The above expression for P(f, t) is simply a counting of the extent of the subset in phase space where f(X) attains a particular numerical value f, weighted with the local point density. Other more complicated pdf's can be defined. For example, PX, t, X0, t0) is the pdf for X...

In fact, all rules that we have learned so far can be extended to conditional probability. For example, the formulas given in Example 1.10 can be rewritten:Example For three events, AA, BB, and CC, with P(C)>0P(C)>0, we have ...
where x\ge 0 is interpreted as initial capital, p>0 denotes a constant premium rate, the Poisson process (N_t)_{t\ge 0} represents the claim counting process, and the i.i.d. positive random variables \{S_i, i\in \mathbb {N}\} are the claim size variables and independent of (...

2.1 Basic and derived rules of the probability calculus Probability theory provides a tool for handling inductive arguments. Typically the first step is to define some needed terms. We define a probabilistic experiment (broadly) to be any process that produces outcomes which are not predictable in ...
