| Dec 6, 2016 at 13:53 | comment | added | Tim | @Henry.L ...nevertheless, it is a part of history of statistical thought :) Notice also that it's not only Fienberg who provides such examples. The whole anti-inverse-probability and anti-Bayesian rebel started because it became quite popular. | |
| Dec 5, 2016 at 23:26 | comment | added | Henry.L | I think Fienberg extended the proud of Bayesians too far. I personally strongly dislike using "inverse probability" to define anything because it does not seem to be consistent with the integral geometry picture proposed by Adler and Taylor. Any good statistical procedure should have its mathematical correspondence, inverse probability is so twisted that you can hardly analyze it when the problem is slightly more sensitive by my experience. | |
