It is not difficult to prove that the Jeffrey rule, and hence its special case of
Bayesian Conditionalisation, minimises cross-entropy (Williams 1980). The
justification for proposing that minimum change from P consistent with the new
constraint ...

Probability, Dynamics and Causality: Essays in Honour of ...
Jeffrey's answer was, of course, the rule which goes by his name, that of Jeffrey
conditionalisation, stated in Section 2. The rule has many nice properties (Jeffrey
loc. cit.). It reduces continuously to ordinary conditionalisation when one of the ...

Observation and Experiment in the Natural and Social Sciences
Several such principles often have been canvassed: the Principle of Indifference,
the Maximum Entropy principle and its variant the Principle of Minimum
Information, invariance principles, and the Principle(s) of Conditionalisation. The
list is ...

10.3.2 Imaging versus other forms of conditionalisation How are imaging and
other forms of conditionalisation related? If we restrict ourselves to comparing
imaging and Bayesian conditionalisation, then the two techniques can be
pictured in ...

Henry E. Kyburg, Jr. & Isaac Levi
Kyburg's account of direct inference is designed to specify the confirmational
commitment any rational agent ought to have for any corpus K expressible in a
given language L. Therefore, the distinction between confirmational
conditionalisation ...

Scientific Reasoning: The Bayesian Approach
... thereby transformed into an updating rule, things look altogether more
promising. For a start, the Principle subsumes both Bayesian and Jeffrey
conditionalisation: minimising 1(p,q) subject to a shift from q(e) to p(e) I p yields
the latter: ...

taken to express the rule for rational change of subjective degree of beliefs: ...

Greek, Indian and Arabic Logic
Thus, in conformity with the conditionalisation principle and the description of a
sound conditional presented by Diogenes, (3) would be valid just in case the
contradictory of its conclusion were in conflict with the conjunction of its
premisses.

Probability: A Philosophical Introduction
Conditionalisation is a theory of how our credences should be updated in
response to evidence. Whether this updating involves deciding what output
credences to have is a moot point. If it does, conditionalisation is itself a decision
theory.

Quantified Representation of Uncertainty and Imprecision: ...
In other words, Jeffrey conditionalisation subsumes Bayesian conditionalisation.
Second, ( J) is equivalent to the n functional identities p(.|^4,) — d. | As); these
identities are summarised by saying that the partition A is sufficient for the pair of
