The Likelihood and Invariance Principles
John A. Hartigan · Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B (Statistical Methodology) · 1967
Summary The likelihood and invariance principles, when combined, imply the probability principle, which allows only very restricted inferences about a parameter, based on an observation. It is suggested, in explanation, that the likelihood and invariance principles are valid under two different viewpoints of the model, and that these viewpoints are incompatible.
