Algorithmic Probability (eBook)

What Is Algorithmic Probability

In the field of algorithmic information theory, algorithmic probability is a mathematical method that assigns a prior probability to a given observation. This method is sometimes referred to as Solomonoff probability. In the 1960s, Ray Solomonoff was the one who came up with the idea. It has applications in the theory of inductive reasoning as well as the analysis of algorithms. Solomonoff combines Bayes' rule and the technique in order to derive probabilities of prediction for an algorithm's future outputs. He does this within the context of his broad theory of inductive inference.
