[1913 Webster]
1. The quality or state of being probable; appearance of
reality or truth; reasonable ground of presumption;
likelihood.
[1913 Webster]
Probability is the appearance of the agreement or
disagreement of two ideas, by the intervention of
proofs whose connection is not constant, but appears
for the most part to be so. --Locke.
[1913 Webster]
2. That which is or appears probable; anything that has the
appearance of reality or truth.
[1913 Webster]
The whole life of man is a perpetual comparison of
evidence and balancing of probabilities.
--Buckminster.
[1913 Webster]
We do not call for evidence till antecedent
probabilities fail. --J. H.
Newman.
[1913 Webster]
3. (Math.) Likelihood of the occurrence of any event in the
doctrine of chances, or the ratio of the number of
favorable chances to the whole number of chances,
favorable and unfavorable. See 1st Chance, n., 5.
[1913 Webster]
Syn: Likeliness; credibleness; likelihood; chance.
[1913 Webster] |
probability
(wn) | probability
n 1: a measure of how likely it is that some event will occur; a
number expressing the ratio of favorable cases to the whole
number of cases possible; "the probability that an unbiased
coin will fall with the head up is 0.5" [syn:
probability, chance]
2: the quality of being probable; a probable event or the most
probable event; "for a while mutiny seemed a probability";
"going by past experience there was a high probability that
the visitors were lost" [ant: improbability,
improbableness] |
PROBABILITY
(bouvier) | PROBABILITY. That which is likely to happen; that which is most consonant to
reason; for example, there is a strong probability that a man of a good
moral character, and who has heretofore been remarkable for truth, will,
when examined as a witness under oath, tell the truth; and, on the contrary,
that a man who has been guilty of perjury, will not, under the same
circumstances, tell the truth; the former will, therefore, be entitled to
credit, while the latter will not.

intuitionistic probability
(foldoc) | intuitionistic probability
Florentin Smarandache's representation of the
probability of an event occuring, given by T, I, F which are real
subsets representing the truth, indeterminacy, and falsity
percentages respectively, and
n_sup = sup(T) + sup(I) + sup(F) < 100
Related to intuitionistic logic.

neutrosophic probability
(foldoc) | neutrosophic probability
An extended form of probability based on
Neutrosophy, in which a statement is held to be t true, i
indeterminate, and f false, where t, i, f are real values from
the ranges T, I, F, with no restriction on T, I, F or the sum
n=t+i+f.

paraconsistent probability
(foldoc) | paraconsistent probability
A notion introduced by Florentin Smarandache: The
probability (T, I, F) that an event occurs is calculated from
different sources which may be contradictory or may overlap
information; here T, I, F are real subsets representing the
truth, indeterminacy, and falsity percentages respectively,
and n_sup = sup(T)+sup(I)+sup(F) > 100.

tautological probability
(foldoc) | tautological probability
A notion introduced by Florentin Smarandache whereby
the probability of some event is more than one. Tautological
probability is used for universally true propositions,
i.e. those which do not depend on time, space, subjectivity,
etc.

improbability
(devil) | IMPROBABILITY, n.
His tale he told with a solemn face
And a tender, melancholy grace.
Improbable 'twas, no doubt,
When you came to think it out,
But the fascinated crowd
Their deep surprise avowed
And all with a single voice averred
'Twas the most amazing thing they'd heard --
All save one who spake never a word,
But sat as mum
As if deaf and dumb,
Serene, indifferent and unstirred.
Then all the others turned to him
And scrutinized him limb from limb --
Scanned him alive;
But he seemed to thrive
And tranquiler grow each minute,
As if there were nothing in it.
"What! what!" cried one, "are you not amazed
At what our friend has told?" He raised
Soberly then his eyes and gazed
In a natural way
And proceeded to say,
As he crossed his feet on the mantel-shelf:
"O no -- not at all; I'm a liar myself."
