Testing a precise null hypothesis:the case of Lindley's Paradox
statistical inference hypothesis testing Lindley's paradox reference Bayesianism frequentism
<
2016/5/31
The interpretation of tests of a point null hypothesis against an unspecified alternative is a classical and yet unresolved issue in statistical methodology. This paper approaches the problem from the...
Defusing Bertrand's Paradox
Bertrand's Paradox Principle of Indifference interpretation of probability Haar measure
<
2016/5/30
The classical interpretation of probability together with the Principle of Indifference are formulated in terms of probability measure spaces in which the probability is given by the Haar measure. A n...

I present a novel approach to the recent scholarly debate that has arisen with respect to the philosophical import one should infer from scientific accounts of “Phase Transitions,” by appealing to a d...
Photons uncertainty removes Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox
Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox locality
<
2008/4/22
Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen (EPR) argued that the
quantum-mechanical probabilistic description of physical reality
had to be incomplete, in order to avoid an instantaneous action
between distant m...
Reconciling Spacetime and the Quantum: Relational Blockworld and the Quantum Liar Paradox
blockworld non-relativistic quantum mechanics entanglement
<
2008/4/22
The Relational Blockworld (RBW) interpretation of non-relativistic quantum mechanics(NRQM) is introduced. Accordingly, the spacetime of NRQM is a relational, nonseparableblockworld whereby spatial dis...
The double-slit experiment: A paradox-free kinematic description
double-slit experiment EPR experiment measurement problem
<
2008/4/21
The paradoxes of the double-slit experiment with an electron are shown to originate in the implicit assumption that the electron is always located in the classical space. It is demonstrated that there...
The EPR experiment: A paradox-free definition of reality
EPR experiment measurement problem
<
2008/4/21
The paradoxes of the EPR experiment with two particles are shown to originate in the implicit assumption that the particles are always located in the classical space. There exists a substitute for thi...
THE GOODMAN PARADOX: THREE DIFFERENT PROBLEMS AND A NATURALISTIC SOLUTION TO TWO OF THEM.

<
2008/4/21
It is now more than fifty years that the Goodman paradox has been discussed, and many different solutions have been proposed. But so far no agreement has been reached about which is the correct soluti...
The Tacking by Disjunction Paradox: Bayesianism versus Hypothetico-deductivism
Confirmation paradox tacking by disjunction Bayesianism
<
2008/4/21
Hypothetico-deductivists have struggled to develop qualitative confirmation theories not raising the so-called tacking by disjunction paradox. In this paper, I analyze the difficulties yielded by the ...
Twin Paradox and the Logical Foundation of Relativity Theory

<
2008/4/21
We study the foundation of space-time theory in the framework of first-order logic (FOL). Since the foundation of mathematics has been successfully carried through (via set theory) in FOL, it is not e...
Two aggregation paradoxes in social decision making: the Ostrogorski paradox and the discursive dilemma
Judgment aggregation belief merging belief fusion
<
2008/4/21
The Ostrogorski paradox and the discursive dilemma are seemingly unrelated paradoxes of aggregation. The former is discussed in traditional social choice theory, while the latter is at the core of the...

A brief explanation of the heuristic value of paradoxes as well as a critique of Mr. Lynds's argument by reductio ad absurdam.
Indifference, Sample Space, and the Wine/Water Paradox
Probability Indifference Paradoxes
<
2008/4/14
Von Mises’ wine/water paradox has served as a foundation for detractors of the Principle of Indifference and logical probability. Mikkelson recently proposed a first solution, and here several additio...
EPR Paradox and the Physical Meaning of an Experiment in Quantum Mechanics
the Physical Meaning of an Experiment EPR Paradox
<
2008/4/11
It is shown that there is one purely deterministic outcome when
measurement is made on the state function chosen by EPR to describe the
combined two-particle system – the distance between the two pa...
Counterfactual Logic and the Hardy Paradox: Remarks on Shimony and Stein's Criticism of Stapp's Proof
Counterfactuals possible worlds quantum entanglement
<
2008/4/10
This is an extended critique of comments made by Abner Shimony and Howard Stein on Henry Stapp’s proof of the non-locality of quantum mechanics. Although I claim that ultimately Stapp’s proof does not...
