Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Mathematical Theory of Probability: From the Time of Pascal to That of Laplace The favourable reception which has been granted to (my History of the Calculus of Variations during the Nineteenth Century has encouraged me to undertake another work of the same kind. The subject to which I now invite attention has high claims to consideration on account of the subtle problems which it involves, the valuable contributions to analysis which it has produced, its important practical applications, and the eminence of those who have cultivated it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Mathematical Theory of Probability De Moivre's Doctrine of Chances formed a treatise on the subject, full, clear and accurate; and it maintained its place as a standard work, at least in England, almost down to our own day. The tenth Chapter gives an account of some miscellaneous investigations between the years 1700 and 1750. These investigations are due to Nicolas Bernoulli, Arbuthnot, Browne, Mairan, Nicole, Buffon, Ham, Thomas Simpson and John Bernoulli. The eleventh Chapter relates to Daniel Bernoulli, containing an account of a series of memoirs published chiefly in the volumes of the Academy of Petersburg; the memoirs are remarkable for boldness and originality, the first of them contains the celebrated theory of Moral Expectation. The twelfth Chapter relates to Euler; it gives an account of his memoirs, which relate principally to certain games of chance. The thirteenth Chapter relates to D'Alembert; it gives a full account of the objections which ho urged against some of the fundamental principles of the subject, and of his controversy with Daniel Bernoulli on the mathematical investigation of the gain to human life which would arise from the extirpation of one of the most fatal diseases to which the human race is liable. The fourteenth Chapter relates to Bayes; it explains the method by which he demonstrated his famous theorem, which may be said to have been the origin of that part of the subject which relates to the probabilities of causes as inferred from observed effects. The fifteenth Chapter is devoted to Lagrange; he contributed to the subject a valuable memoir on the theory of the errors of observations, and demonstrations of the results enunciated by De Moivre respecting the Duration of Play. The sixteenth Chapter contains notices of miscellaneous investigations between the years 1750 and 1780. This Chapter brings before us Kaostner, Clark, Mallet, John Bernoulli, Beguelin, Micholl, Lambert, Buffon, Fuss, and some others. The memoir of Micholl is remarkable; it contains the famous argument for the existence of design drawn from the fact of the closeness of certain stars, like the Pleiades. The seventeenth Chapter relates to Cordorcet, who published a large book and a long memoir upon the Theory of Probability.

Download or read book Philosophical Foundations of Probability Theory written by Roy Weatherford and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1982, Philosophical Foundations of Probability Theory starts with the uses we make of the concept in everyday life and then examines the rival theories that seek to account for these applications. It offers a critical exposition of the major philosophical theories of probability, with special attention given to the metaphysical and epistemological assumptions and implications of each. The Classical Theory suggests probability is simply the ratio of favorable cases to all equi-possible cases: it is this theory that is relied on by gamblers and by most non-specialists. The A Priori Theory, on the other hand, describes probability as a logical relation between statements based on evidence. The Relative Frequency theories locate it not in logic but among empirical rates of occurrence in the real world, while the Subjectivist Theory identifies probability with the degree of a person’s belief in a proposition. Each of these types of theory is examined in turn, and the treatment is unified by the use of running examples and parallel analyses of each theory. The final chapter includes a summary and the author’s conclusions. This book is an essential read for scholars and researchers of Philosophy.
Download or read book Mathematical Theory of Probability and Statistics written by Richard von Mises and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 709 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematical Theory of Probability and Statistics focuses on the contributions and influence of Richard von Mises on the processes, methodologies, and approaches involved in the mathematical theory of probability and statistics. The publication first elaborates on fundamentals, general label space, and basic properties of distributions. Discussions focus on Gaussian distribution, Poisson distribution, mean value variance and other moments, non-countable label space, basic assumptions, operations, and distribution function. The text then ponders on examples of combined operations and summation of chance variables characteristic function. The book takes a look at the asymptotic distribution of the sum of chance variables and probability inference. Topics include inference from a finite number of observations, law of large numbers, asymptotic distributions, limit distribution of the sum of independent discrete random variables, probability of the sum of rare events, and probability density. The text also focuses on the introduction to the theory of statistical functions and multivariate statistics. The publication is a dependable source of information for researchers interested in the mathematical theory of probability and statistics

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Mathematics by Florian Cajori: Delve into the captivating journey of mathematics, exploring its origins, significant discoveries, and influential figures throughout history. From ancient civilizations to modern times, this book presents a comprehensive account of the development of mathematical concepts and their profound impact on human civilization. Key Points: Traces the evolution of mathematical ideas, showcasing the contributions of renowned mathematicians. Highlights key mathematical concepts and theorems that have shaped various fields of science and technology. Explores the cultural, social, and philosophical aspects intertwined with the study of mathematics. Florian Cajori (1859-1930) was a noted Swiss American historian and educator who wrote the seminal work, A History of Mathematics. Cajori was a professor of mathematics at the University of Colorado and the University of California, Berkeley, and his work is still used as a reference today. Cajori was a prolific writer, publishing more than 30 books and 250 articles during his lifetime. He also wrote several textbooks and edited several other books on the history of mathematics. He was known as a passionate teacher and lectured widely on the history of mathematics. Cajori's work is considered to be the definitive source on the history of mathematics and he is fondly remembered for his dedication to the field.
