The Foundations Of Inference And Its Application To Fundamental Physics, Nicholas Matthew Carrara
The Foundations Of Inference And Its Application To Fundamental Physics, Nicholas Matthew Carrara
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
This thesis concerns the foundations of inference – probability theory,entropic inference, information geometry, etc. – and its application to the Entropic Dynamics (ED) approach to Quantum Mechanics (QM) [21, 22, 41, 53, 56–61, 150–153, 165, 195, 196, 268]. The first half of this thesis, chapters 2-6, concern the development of the inference framework. We begin in chapter 2 by discussing de- ductive inference, which involves formal logic and it’s role in access- ing the truth of propositions. We eventually discover that deductive inference is incomplete, in that it can’t address situations in which we have incomplete information. This necessitates a …
