Statistical Inference and Inductive Prevision

  • Italo Scardovi

Abstract

It’s a great honor for me to dedicate these scattered annotations (extracts from wider writings or simple discussion issues) to Camilo Dagum, great scientist and fraternal friend. They draw inspiration from the topics, we both started to debate a long time ago with our common master Corrado Gini. Under his guidance we learned to be wary of the widespread schemes of a certain philosophy of science still dealing with “ravens all black”, “swans all white”, “emeralds all green” (if not “grue”).
