Reverse‐Bayes methods for evidence assessment and research synthesis It is now widely accepted that the standard inferential toolkit used by the scientific research community—null-hypothesis significance testing (NHST)—is not fit for purpose. Yet despite the threat po....

#statstab #520 Reverse‐Bayes methods for evidence assessment and research synthesis

Thoughts: I was reminded of this paper on assessing the evidentiary value of a finding. What do ppl think?

There is a non-zero #probability that we are a collective of Boltzmann brains...
...and if the universe is truly infinite...

That probability is 1...

Hello my fellow Boltzmann brains!

After 1 week of games how much should you trust your team's results?

If we knew nothing about these teams before the season started, then given their run differential, est. win probability, and actual win %, we can model team strength

Posted a blog entry on my current work, which is looking at how similar the stable distributions are to each other. The upshot is that translating a stable distribution along the axis has the minimal effect for α=1 (e.g.,the Cauchy distribution), and the maximal effect for very small α.

Original post on mathstodon.xyz

I've updated my dice problem collection with a new problem (#29 of the now 83 problems).

The question is: how many times, on average, do we need to roll a die, multiplying the results, until we reach a perfect square? So we might roll a 1 or 4 and be immediately square. Or we might roll […]

The Math That Explains Why Bell Curves Are Everywhere | Quanta Magazine The central limit theorem started as a bar trick for 18th-century gamblers. Now scientists rely on it every day.

This 👇🏽 doesn’t actually try to explain the Central Limit Theorem – bummer:

Dice Probabilities with Multiple Rolls Have you ever wondered just how quickly the chances of success add up if you can make a check repeatedly without consequence? This post looks at d20 checks, including with advantage or disadvantage, and how this changes if there is a chance of instant failure.

Have you ever wondered just how quickly the chances of success add up if you can make a check repeatedly without consequence? This post looks at #d20 #checks and how the #probability ramps up, and uses this to make suggestions for applying them at your #DnD or #TTRPG table.
