Abstract

In §5 we discussed two ways in which classical statistics can be captured in Schema (1.1),, one using functional models and fiducial probability, and one using evidential probability to represent the fiducial argument. This section investigates the use of the common machinery of §8.2 and Algorithm 7 in classical statistics.
