Dr. Norman Fenton and Dr. Martin Neil are mathematicians from Queen Mary University of London who are experts in the unreasonable power of mathematics. For example - it is possible to produce an algorithm that will predict the likelihood that a piece of hardware or software will fail - and then to use that information to predict the stability of much larger systems - military vehicles, fly-by-wire software for aircraft, medical technologies. Along the way, they developed a rare intuition for statistics and probability, which allowed them to start to see places where statistical analysis was being done in such a slapdash way that it was leading people to believe things that… didn't make a lot of sense. At first they attributed this simply to ignorance, but over the last few years underwent a dramatic transformation. They went from believing in the standard narrative, to questioning most of it. Their journey on this path is detailed in the book “Fighting Goliath,” and the full conversation is too hot for this platform - so can be heard wherever you listen to podcasts by looking for DemystifySci #295 Sign up for our Patreon and get episodes early + join our weekly Patron Chat https://bit.ly/3lcAasB AND rock some Demystify Gear to spread the word: https://demystifysci.myspreadshop.com/ OR do your Amazon shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/4g2cPVV (00:00:00) Go!

Our Head of Corporate Credit notes that while recent central bank meetings offered few surprises, there was still plenty to be gleaned that could affect credit valuations. ----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Andrew Sheets, head of Corporate Credit Research at Morgan Stanley. Along with my colleagues bringing you a variety of perspectives, today I'll be talking about this week's central bank meetings, and why as expected outcomes can still mean new information for credit investors.It's Friday, March 22nd at 2pm in London.When a good friend was interviewing at Morgan Stanley, many years ago, he was asked a version of the ‘Monty Hall Problem.' Imagine that you're on a game show with a prize behind one of three doors. You make your guess of door 1, 2 or 3. And then the host opens one of the doors you didn't pick, showing that it's empty. Should you change your original guess?While it's a bit of a paradox, you should. Your original odds of finding the prize were 1-in-3. But by showing you a door with a wrong answer, the odds have improved. The host gave you new information. And that's what came to mind this week, after important meetings from the Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan. Both banks acted in-line with our economists' expectations. But those meetings and what came after still provided some valuable new information. Information that, in our view, was helpful to credit.On Tuesday, the Bank of Japan raised interest rates for the first time since 2016, ended Yield Curve Control, and ended its purchases of equities. All of these measures had been previously used to help boost too-low inflation. But they have also resulted in a significant weakening of Japan's currency, the Yen. And that, in turn, had made it attractive for Japanese investors to invest in overseas bonds in other currencies – which were gaining value as the Yen weakened.So, one risk heading into this week was that these big changes in the Bank of Japan would reverse these other trends. It would strengthen the currency and make buying corporate bonds from the US or Europe less attractive to Japanese investors. But this meeting has now come and gone, and the Yen saw little movement. That is helpful, new information. Before Tuesday, it was impossible to know how the currency would react.Then on Wednesday, the Fed confirmed its expectation from December that it was planning to cut interest rates three times this year. On the surface, that was another ‘as expected' outcome. But it still contained new information. The Fed's forecast suggested more confidence that stronger 2024 growth wouldn't lead to higher inflation. And that endorsed the idea that the productive capacity of the US economy is improving. Solid growth and lower inflation co-existing, thanks to better productivity, will be closer to a 1990s style outcome. And that was a pretty good scenario for credit.This week's central bank meetings have come and gone without big surprises. But sometimes ‘as expected' can still deliver new information. We continue to expect credit valuations to hold at richer-than-average levels, and like US leveraged loans, as a high yielding market well-suited for a mid-90s scenario.Thanks for listening.

For years, game show producers have been asking the same question over and over: How can I make a boring game interesting for people to watch on television. Like Bingo, for example. Can it make a good game show? As it turns out, no. But if you make it colorful, musical, bilingual, and add a charming host and some salsa dancers you sure can come close. Zach had a perverse Spotify Wrapped, Jared didn't know people could play multiple instruments, and Adam wants Raven Simone in Smash Brothers. Talking Points Include: A Big Captain Jack Year, Sad Movie Talk, Kong In Charge, Game Shows Oompa Loompas, TikTok Live, Grinch Turned Off Body Cam, The Monty Hall Problem, Cheating At Bingo, Groundhog Day Meets National Treasure

Kornflake is back! And Ed, the other half of the Sponge Awareness Foundation, is back too! Because Ed thought we should have a game show-themed FlopFight, and it's not like we had anything better to do! So here we go with another ridiculous tournament, and this time the players are the hosts of classic game shows like Jeopardy and Tic Tac Dough, as well as related game show characters. (Could a Press Your Luck Whammy get to play? Could a Muppet be involved? Can anyone stop Regis?) And because it's a FlopFight, each round involves weird randomly selected competitions like running a marathon or boxing a kangaroo, so anything could happen. (Sure, Vanna White can turn letters, but would she make a good chicken farmer?) This week's winner advances to the final round, unless they get gonged by the Unknown Comic or something. So gather at your backyard Thanksgiving table for pretzels and popcorn and jelly beans and toast, and enjoy our latest FlopFight! It's like a Monty Hall Problem for your soul.

This week Justin Fields is back and we have seven games to go, so as we move into this final stage of the season we have to ask some questions. What does Justin have to do to keep his job? How about Eberflus? And even if they perform well, SHOULD they be able to save themselves, given what is behind doors number 2 and 3?

Eww! You smell that? It must be this week's new episode. Sure, Bailey, Keegan, and Dave (not THAT Dave) may start out thinking that it's a normal episode with a piece of silly wordplay surrounding an iconic title. But slowly, a creeping odor drifts in from the distance. It's not pleasant. It's downright vile. It's deadly, but it's anything by silent. Brace yourselves, listeners. Brace yourselves. Also, we guess there's a lightning round that's slightly more normal. NOTES ⚠️ Inline notes below may be truncated due to podcast feed character limits. Full notes are always on the episode page.
In this bonus episode, Adam sticks around to discuss the overlap between pro wrestling and game show fans, my new love of Survivor, and he explains the enigma that is The Monty Hall Problem.

He says overall there are a lot of opportunities in the market right now that people are afraid to take. He introduces the Monty Hall Problem, and the mathematics behind it. Sometimes changing your mind is a good idea, it's not always a bad thing. Mathematically it is proven in the Monty Hall Problem to be a wise decision. Changing your mind does not mean you were wrong, it means you are now able to take the information at hand and make a better decision. Tune in and learn the why behind the Monty Hall Problem and how you can play into the downs of the market.

Everyday we make choices. What should we wear? How late are we going to be to work? Etc. but do we always know why we make the right choice? This week David and Andy talk about the Monty Hall Problem and why the answer is so counter intuitive.
No regrets is a phrase thrown around like a badge of honor. Tattoos, songs and marketing taglines all boast this notion of curating a liberated life that you wouldn't alter, change or modify in any way. But are we missing something? Best-selling author, Daniel H. Pink has done extensive research for his new book, The Power of Regret: How Looking Backward Moves Us Forward, and believes that the feeling of regret isn't just something that makes us human, it actually gives us hope. Daniel Pink is the author of seven books, including the New York Times bestsellers When and A Whole New Mind — as well as the #1 New York Times bestsellers Drive and To Sell is Human. Dan's books have won multiple awards, have been translated into 42 languages, and have sold millions of copies around the world. Dan was also the host and co-executive producer of “Crowd Control,” a television series about human behavior on the National Geographic Channel that aired in more than 100 countries. Before venturing out on his own 20 years ago, Dan worked in politics and in government, including serving as chief speechwriter to Vice President Al Gore. Topics (3:56) Speed round questions (7:48) How Dan started to lean into his own regrets. (10:49) The complex emotion of regret. (12:16) Will we regret switching our answers on a test? (16:33) How Dan has compiled data on regret. (18:55) How our regrets change as we age. (22:11) Can we anticipate our regrets? (26:29) How our unique moral code affects our regrets. (29:40) The Four Core Regrets. (33:47) What didn't go in Dan's book. (39:45) The power of self compassion. (41:35) Why regret gives us hope. (46:40) What music would Dan never regret listening to?

Hey! Here's our Brand Recall Survey survey you can fill - https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/6HP2RVB Okay so picture this - there are 3 doors in front of you and two of them have a goat behind them and one of the doors has your dream car behind it. You're asked to choose one door and then you're shown one of the remaining two doors with the goat behind it. At this point, if given the choice to switch the door you had previously chosen, what would you do? This, folks, is the Monty Hall Problem. It's more or less like a brain teaser in which you have to test your chances based on probability. It came from the American television game show 'Let's Make a Deal' and is named after its original host, Monty Hall.Find out more about the Monty Hall problem in today's episode of Smarter With Sid.You can follow Siddharth Deshmukh on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sideshmukh Follow Siddharth Deshmukh on Instagram: https://instagram.com/thetravellingprofessor Follow Siddharth Deshmukh on Twitter: https://twitter.com/edgysid?s=09 You can reach out to us on social media.

This video and associated podcast are about Steven Pinker's new book "Rationality". I read a small number of brief excerpts from the book itself, alongside commenting, criticising and reviewing the content of the first two chapters. There are a number of images and videos in the Youtube version which may help with particular concepts as we go along. I compare Pinker's vision of rationality with what might be interpreted about that same topic from the work of David Deutsch and Karl Popper. In summary: I found the book highly entertaining in places and an excellent overview of this topic as it might be taught in an Ivy League University in The United States (indeed Pinker says that such a course that he taught was part of the impetus for the book). In terms of being a good substitute for those who might never have been able to afford due to chance, location or cost actually attending such an institution and taking on a course such as one on "Critical Thinking" and "Rationality" the book could readily serve as a series of well written university lecture notes. To that end, it is certainly worth the cost for anyone interested in these topics. In Chapter 2, Professor Pinker not only agrees with the "justified true belief" conception of knowledge but uses it in practise to explain what might be called the "rational" and "irrational". I thus spend a good portion of the second half of this video suggesting ways in which that very conception of knowledge itself leads to irrationality and explain a better way of understanding concepts like "knowledge" as compared to "belief" and how to understand the phrase "I know". I intend to cover 2 chapters per episode. 00:00 Introduction 03:30 “Enlightenment Now” and praise for "The Beginning of Infinity". 07:50 Timeless errors, timely examples. 13:05 “Rationality” in “The Beginning of Infinity” sense. 17:15 Do ancient-type tribal people have a “scientific mindset”? 25:00 Explanatory Universality & Anti-rational memes 34:34 Skill with logic puzzles and *being* logical/rational 42:00 The Wason Selection task 51:25 The Monty Hall Problem 1:02:50 The Linda Problem (& remarks on uses and misuses of probability) 1:11:42 Popper and theory laden observations 1:14:20 Knowledge as Justified True Belief - Why Popper matters 1:27:00 Objective truth 1:32:30 Reason is fun 1:38:18 Closing remarks about chapter 2

For simplicity and peace of mind, we generally default to manage all trades at 21 DTE regardless of other variables. Similar to the Monty Hall problem when the host tells you which cards are not the Ace, a 16∆ strangle will have usually undergone significant changes by the 21 DTE mark, and taking those changes into consideration can fine tune your management strategy to your risk-taking objectives. If a trade was a loser by the 21 DTE mark, holding the trade has a good chance to be profitable by expiration, but expect to take more risk until then. Conversely, holding a winner at 21 DTE to expiration is like holding a very low risk, low reward trade.

You are a contestant on Let's Make a Deal, hosted by Monty Hall. There are 3 identical doors. Behind only one is the prize car. You make your choice, then Monty Hall opens one of the other doors to reveal a goat and asks whether you want to change your choice. Should you, or does it matter? Paula Sloan talks about the counterintuitive answer, and how she got the Duke MBA students in her math class to believe the answer. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-art-of-mathematics/message

Known for its controversy, The Monty Hall Problem was popularised through a newspaper column called Ask Marilyn. In this episode, we discuss how probability can help us make a decision in The Monty Hall Problem as well as more generally. We also try to define the “wrong decision” and the circumstances under which we might regret our choices. Does the outcome of your decision imply how good it was in the first place? Later on, we briefly venture into numbers and how our minds don't always perceive things correctly. Finally, we discuss The Two- Envelope Paradox and how the assumptions we make can lead us to the wrong conclusions.

In this Short the Dawdlers play a game. Everyone loses. The end.
Charles B. Cross (University of Georgia) gives a talk at the MCMP Workshop on Bayesian Methods in Philosophy titled "Knowledge about Probability in the Monty Hall Problem".
Ben Campbell (Jim Sturgess), a mathematics major at MIT, is accepted into Harvard Medical School but cannot afford the $300,000 tuition. He applies for the prestigious Robinson Scholarship which would cover the entire cost. However, despite having an MCAT score of 44 and high grades, he faces fierce competition, and is told by the director that the scholarship will only go to whichever student dazzles him. Back at MIT, Professor Micky Rosa (redacted) challenges Ben with the Monty Hall Problem which he solves successfully. After looking at Ben's 97% score on his latest non-linear equations test, Rosa invites Ben to join his blackjack team, which consists of fellow students Choi, Fisher, Jill, and Kianna. Using card counting and covert signalling, they are able to increase their probability of winning while at casinos, leading them to earn substantial profits. Over many weekends, the team is flown to Las Vegas and Ben comes to enjoy his luxurious lifestyle as a so-called big player. The team is impressed by Ben's skill, but Fisher becomes jealous and fights him while drunk, leading Rosa to expel him. Meanwhile, the head of security, Cole Williams (Laurence Fishburne), has been monitoring the team and begins to turn his attention to Ben. Ben's devotion to blackjack causes him to neglect his role in an engineering competition, which estranges him from his friends. During the next trip to Las Vegas, he is emotionally distracted and fails to walk away from the table when signaled, causing him to lose his earnings of $200,000. Rosa is angered and quits the team, demanding that Ben must repay $200,000. Ben and three of the students decide that they will continue to play blackjack without Rosa, but they are caught by Williams, whom Rosa tipped off. William beats up Ben and warns him not to return. Ben learns that he is ineligible for graduation because his course taught by Professor Rosa is marked as incomplete. Furthermore, his winnings are stolen from his dormitory room. Suspecting Rosa, Ben confers with the other blackjack students, and they persuade Rosa to make a final trip to Las Vegas before the casinos install biometric software. The team puts on disguises and returns to Planet Hollywood, winning $640,000 before they are spotted by Williams. Rosa flees with the bag of chips, jumping onto a limousine, but discovers that it's a setup to give him to Williams. It is revealed that Ben and Williams made a deal to lure Rosa to Las Vegas so that Williams may capture and beat him, because Williams has past grievances against him. Williams proceeds to hold Rosa hostage and subject him to beatings. In exchange, Williams allows Ben to play for one more night in Las Vegas, enjoying immunity from capture. However, as Ben is leaving with his earnings, Williams betrays him and takes the bag of chips at gunpoint. Ben protests, and Williams explains that he needs retirement funds, whereas intelligent people like Ben will always find a way to succeed. The film ends with Ben recounting the entire tale to the dazzled scholarship director.

You are on a gameshow. There are three doors in front of you. There is a car behind one of the doors and there are goats behind two of the doors. You get to pick one door. After you pick, the host opens a different door than the one you picked, to show you one of the goats. Should you stay with the door you initially picked, should you switch doors, or does it even matter?

Once again, it's time for our annual memorial show, so we're looking back on everyone we lost in 2017, from the world of pop culture and beyond. (And once again, it's our longest Flopcast ever! We just can't help it.) Our list includes familiar old favorites from TV, movies, and music (such as Adam West, June Foray, Mary Tyler Moore, Tom Petty, Fats Domino, Chuck Berry, Don Rickles, David Cassidy, and Rose Marie), as well as directors, voice actors, comic book creators, game show hosts, wrestlers, and maybe a guy who could play three trumpets while hopping on a pogo stick. (Yeah, it's a long list.) In 2017, we lost Gomer Pyle, Joanie from Happy Days, Oscar Goldman from The Six Million Dollar Man, Morty from Meatballs ("Hi, Mickey!"), and Benson from, uh, Benson. But we'll get through this together. We'll settle things here, in our forum. That's what Judge Wapner would have wanted.
The Monty Hall problem is a famous paradoxical question that references the popular gameshow called “Let’s Make a Deal.” It […]

The fellas meet in the magical land of Skype an regale each other with Thanksgiving cheer...for the most part. Craig's mother meets the lady friend's family for the first time and M'Gary skips out on Jeremy for the big meal. Craig has a FANTASTIC story to share from one of his relatives that wanted to contribute to the show and it is worth every second of your time. Finally, Craig thoroughly confuses Jeremy with a logic game/quiz/question that to this moment baffles him. The name of this stupid party trick is the "Monty Hall Problem". Look it up & be angry, too. Social Media Craig: @anaveragegatsby Jeremy: @aintonswayze Show: @eurekapodcast The song at the end has no real relevance to the show, but Scott Weiland died while this was being edited so it felt like a fitting ending to the show. It is called "Vasoline" by Stone Temple Pilots. A band that for many provided the soundtrack to their youth. Safe home, Scott. The Monty Hall Problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem
This week the monkeys want me to tackle controversy and gameshows with the Monty Hall Problem. Let's find out what is behind those curtains!
Ever heard of the Monty Hall problem? If so, did the world famous brain teaser leave you flummoxed? If not, how does getting flummoxed—and then just as quickly un-flummoxed—sound? I hope you're up for the challenge (and the fun) because that's exactly what's in store for today!
One of the three doors has a car behind it. You pick one, and the game show host reveals that one of the other two is a goat. Knowing that there's a total of two goats and one car, do you switch? (For the podcast transcript, search for the title at www.patheos.com/blogs/crossexamined)
Matematik zordur dersem, herhalde çok şaşırtıcı bir şey söylemiş olmam. Soyutlanıp saf özüne indirilmiş düşünceyi evirip çevirmeyi öğrenmek çok çetin bir iştir. Tabii ki imkânsız değil. Ne de olsa dünyada onbinlerce profesyonel matematikçi var, ve başka insanlardan hiç farkları yok. Çalışınca her şey öğrenilir. Öte yandan matematikte öyle şeyler çıkabiliyor ki karşınıza, “uzmanım” diyenleri bile ters köşeye yatırabiliyor. Monty Hall problemi de masum görünen, ama adamı iki seksen yere yatırabilen bir olasılık problemi. Problemin kaynağı bir yarışma programı. ABD televizyonlarında 1963’den 1977’ye kadar yayında kalan Let’s Make A Deal (Bir Anlaşma Yapalım) isimli programda sunucu Monty Hall konuklarla çeşitli oyunlar oynuyordu. Bu oyunların ortak özelliği, yarışmacıların küçük bir ödülü alıp gitmek veya riske girerek büyük bir ödül kazanmak (veya hiç bir şey almamak) arasında karar vermelerinin gerekmesiydi. Monty Hall’un sunduğu oyunlardan birisi, 1975’de The American Statistician isimli akademik dergide Kaliforniya Üniversitesi, Berkeley’de çalışan matematikçi Steve Selvin tarafından bir olasılık problemi halinde sunuldu. Makalede Monty Hall Problemi olarak anılan bilmece şöyle: Önünüzde üç tane kapalı kapı var. Bunlardan birinin arkasında son model bir otomobil, diğer ikisinin arkasında ise birer keçi var. Kapılardan birini seçiyorsunuz, ama henüz açılmıyor. Monty Hall hangi kapının arkasında araba olduğunu biliyor. Seçmediğiniz iki kapıdan birini açıyor ve o kapının arkasındaki keçiyi görüyorsunuz. Monty Hall isterseniz tercihinizi değiştirip, açılmamış diğer kapıyı seçebileceğinizi söylüyor. Arabayı kazanma ihtimalinizi artırmak için ne yapmalısınız? Başka bir deyişle, tercihinizi değiştirmekle araba kazanma ihtimaliniz artar mı, azalır mı, yoksa hiç mi değişmez? Bu problemi duyan çoğu kişinin, uzmanlar dahil, ilk tepkisi “Değişmez” demek. Başta doğru kapıyı seçme ihtimali ⅓ idi. Şimdi iki kapalı kapı var, ve oyuncunun seçtiği kapının arkasında araba bulunması ihtimali ½. Yani tercihi değiştirmek kazanma ihtimalini artırmayacaktır. Fakat işler o kadar basit değil; Monty’nin arabanın hangi kapı arkasında olduğunu bilmesi ve özellikle keçili kapıyı açıyor olması problemi değiştiriyor. Oyuncu için doğru strateji kapıyı değiştirmek. Nasılını sonraya bırakalım, böylece biraz düşünmeye zamanınız olsun. Olasılık tuzakları Monty Hall probleminin, ve genel olarak şans ve risk içeren bütün karar problemlerinin, kesin kazanç getiren stratejileri yok. Yapabileceğimiz tek şey kazanma ihtimalimizi mümkün olduğunca yükseltmeye çalışmak. Bu her zaman kolay değil, çünkü insan zihni için olasılıklarla düşünmek çok zor. Birçok kez, varsayımlarımız ve ön kabullerimiz bizi yanıltıyor. Psikologlar olasılık problemlerinin algılanışı ve cevaplanmasıyla yakından ilgileniyorlar, çünkü bu konudaki düşünce tarzımız zihnimizin nasıl çalıştığına ve ne tür hatalara yatkın olduğuna ışık tutuyor. En basitinden, şöyle bir soru düşünelim: İki çocuğumdan biri erkek. Diğerinin de erkek olması ihtimali nedir? Çoğu kişi gibi bu soruya %50 cevabını vermiş olabilirsiniz. Ne de olsa bir çocuğun cinsiyeti, ailenin diğer çocuğunun cinsiyetine bağlı değildir. Sorudaki ilk bilgi aslında gereksizdir, tuzağa düşmemiş olmanın haklı gururu ile gülümsersiniz. Maalesef yanlış. Doğru cevap %33. Bunu görmek için durumları tek tek saymak gerekir. Erkek çocuğu E, kız çocuğu K ile gösterelim. İki çocuklu bir ailenin çocuklarının ikisi de erkek (EE), büyüğü erkek küçüğü kız (EK), büyüğü kız küçüğü erkek (KE), veya ikisi de kız (KK) olabilir. Soruda çocuklardan birinin erkek olduğu söylenmiş, yani mümkün olan durumlar sadece EE, EK, KE ("olay uzayı" diye de bilinir). Bunlardan da sadece birinde diğer çocuk erkek olduğuna göre, ihtimal ⅓, yani %33 olur. Yani sorudaki bilgi şaşırtmaca değil, gerekli. İşin püf noktası, soruda erkek çocuğun büyük mü küçük mü olduğunun söylenmemiş olması. Eğer soru “İki çocuğum var, büyüğü erkek.

Cognitive Dissonance - one of the most established and respected theories in psychology - is under attack. An economist - M. Keith Chen - uses what is called the "Monty Hall problem" to show that the research on cognitive dissonance may be seriously flawed. In this episode I explain Chen's concerns about the research on and then I propose that a new study which uses neurofeedback to study cognitive dissonance may come to rescue at just the right moment. Join me to find out how.
