The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood ... When the Exception Confirms the Rule

The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood ... When the Exception Confirms the Rule

This book summarizes the methods and concepts of Statistical Implicative Analysis (SIA) created by Régis Gras in the 1980s to study in a new way the behavioural responses of French pupils to mathematics tests. Using a multidimensional non-symmetrical data analysis method SIA crosses a set of subjects or objects with a set of variables. It effectively complements traditional correlational and psychometric methods. SIA through its various extensions is today presented as a broad Artificial Intelligence method aimed at extracting trends and possible causalities in the form of rules from a set of variables. It is based on the unlikeliness of the existence of these relationships i. e. on the relative weakness of their counter-examples compared to what chance alone would produce. It establishes a dual topological relationship between the set of subjects and the set of variables. Many applications of this approach driving forces or crucibles for the development of SIA have concerned and still concern various fields such as didactics evaluation and assessment psychology sociology medicine biology economics art history and others. Key Features: Presents the foundations and representations of SIA Provides extensions of variable sets and subjects Includes a bonus exercise | The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood .
