Philosophical foundations of statistics
Abstract
The philosophical foundations of statistics involve issues in theoretical statistics, such as goals and methods to meet these goals, and interpretation of the meaning of inference using statistics. They are related to the philosophy of science and to the philosophy of probability. We review the core and partly interrelated themes and place them in context.
