Possibility theory and conditional probability offer complementary perspectives for modelling uncertainty, with each framework contributing distinct advantages. Possibility theory, rooted in fuzzy set ...

In this note we wish to pass along an example that we have found useful when introducing the concepts of conditional probability and Bayes' Rule to undergraduate students. The advantages of this ...

Conditional probability occurs when it is given that something has happened. (Hint: look for the word “given” in the question. The probability that a tennis player wins the first set of a match is ...
