Dependence and Relevance: A probabilistic view
We examine three probabilistic concepts related to the sentence "two variables have no bearing on each other". We explore the relationships between these three concepts and establish their relevance to the process of constructing similarity networks---a tool for acquiring probabilistic knowledge from human experts. We also establish a precise relationship between connectedness in Bayesian networks and relevance in probability.

The Relevance of Proofs of the Rationality of Probability Theory to Automated Reasoning and Cognitive Models
A number of well-known theorems, such as Cox's theorem and de Finetti's theorem. prove that any model of reasoning with uncertain information that satisfies specified conditions of "rationality" must satisfy the axioms o…
FG-NeRF: Flow-GAN based Probabilistic Neural Radiance Field for Independence-Assumption-Free Uncertainty Estimation
Neural radiance fields with stochasticity have garnered significant interest by enabling the sampling of plausible radiance fields and quantifying uncertainty for downstream tasks. Existing works rely on the independence…
NeRFProbabilistic Overview of Probabilities of Default for Low Default Portfolios by K. Pluto and D. Tasche
This article gives a probabilistic overview of the widely used method of default probability estimation proposed by K. Pluto and D. Tasche. There are listed detailed assumptions and derivation of the inequality where the…
Revisiting the probabilistic method of record linkage
In theory, the probabilistic linkage method provides two distinct advantages over non-probabilistic methods, including minimal rates of linkage error and accurate measures of these rates for data users. However, implemen…
BlockingProbabilistic Models of k-mer Frequencies (Extended Abstract)
In this article, we review existing probabilistic models for modeling abundance of fixed-length strings (k-mers) in DNA sequencing data. These models capture dependence of the abundance on various phenomena, such as the …
