Texts in Logic and Games

The talk will analyze the concept of bias (or: unknown probability) in terms of probabilistic epistemic logic. This logic allows us to distinguish between risk and uncertainty, and to describe the postconditions of protocols that are designed to eliminate bias. If there is time, we will also reflect on a further issue of considerable importance concerning the notion of bias: how does one recognize one’s own bias, and if possible, eliminate it? Rineke in Mahabalipuram, January 2009 Texts in Logic and Games | 5 New Perspectives on Games and Interaction is a collection of papers presented at the 2007 colloquium on new per-spectives on games and interaction at the Royal Dutch Academy of Sciences in Amsterdam. The purpose of the colloquium was to clarify the uses of the concepts of game theory, and to identify promising new directions. This important collection testifies to the growing relevance of game theory as a tool to capture the concepts of strategy, interaction, argumentation, communication, coopera-tion and competition. Also, it provides evidence for the richness of game theory and for its impressive and grow-ing applications. 9 7 8 9 0 8 9 6 4 0 5 7 4
