Paraconsistent Probabilities: Consistency, Contradictions and Bayes’ Theorem

This paper represents the first steps towards constructing a paraconsistent theory of probability based on the Logics of Formal Inconsistency (LFIs). We show that LFIs encode very naturally an extension of the notion of probability able to express sophisticated probabilistic reasoning under contradi...
