“Nonmonotonic” does not mean “probabilistic”
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 32 (1):102-103 (2009)
Abstract
Oaksford & Chater (O&C) advocate Bayesian probability as a way to deal formally with the pervasive nonmonotonicity of common sense reasoning. We show that some forms of nonmonotonicity cannot be treated by Bayesian methodsAuthor Profiles
