A Note On Imperfect Recall

Author

Listed:
  • Ken Binmore

Abstract

The Paradox of the Absent-Minded Driver is used in the literature to draw attention to the inadequacy of Savage's theory of subjective probability when its underlying epistomological assumptions fail to be satisfied. This note suggests that the paradox is less telling when the uncertainties involved admit an objective interpretation as frequencies.
