  • The Meaning of Probability
    CHAPTER 2 THE MEANING OF PROBABILITY INTRODUCTION by Glenn Shafer The meaning of probability has been debated since the mathematical theory of probability was formulated in the late 1600s. The five articles in this section have been selected to provide perspective on the history and present state of this debate. Mathematical statistics provided the main arena for debating the meaning of probability during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The debate was conducted mainly between two camps, the subjectivists and the frequentists. The subjectivists contended that the probability of an event is the degree to which someone believes it, as indicated by their willingness to bet or take other actions. The frequentists contended that probability of an event is the frequency with which it occurs. Leonard J. Savage (1917-1971), the author of our first article, was an influential subjectivist. Bradley Efron, the author of our second article, is a leading contemporary frequentist. A newer debate, dating only from the 1950s and conducted more by psychologists and economists than by statisticians, has been concerned with whether the rules of probability are descriptive of human behavior or instead normative for human and machine reasoning. This debate has inspired empirical studies of the ways people violate the rules. In our third article, Amos Tversky and Daniel Kahneman report on some of the results of these studies. In our fourth article, Amos Tversky and I propose that we resolve both debates by formalizing a constructive interpretation of probability. According to this interpretation, probabilities are degrees of belief deliberately constructed and adopted on the basis of evidence, and frequencies are only one among many types of evidence.

  • Physical Determinants of Vesicle Mobility and Supply at a Central
    RESEARCH ARTICLE Physical determinants of vesicle mobility and supply at a central synapse Jason Seth Rothman1, Laszlo Kocsis2, Etienne Herzog3,4, Zoltan Nusser2*, Robin Angus Silver1* 1Department of Neuroscience, Physiology and Pharmacology, University College London, London, United Kingdom; 2Laboratory of Cellular Neurophysiology, Institute of Experimental Medicine, Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Budapest, Hungary; 3Department of Molecular Neurobiology, Max Planck Institute of Experimental Medicine, Go¨ ttingen, Germany; 4Team Synapse in Cognition, Interdisciplinary Institute for Neuroscience, Universite´ de Bordeaux, UMR 5297, F-33000, Bordeaux, France Abstract Encoding continuous sensory variables requires sustained synaptic signalling. At several sensory synapses, rapid vesicle supply is achieved via highly mobile vesicles and specialized ribbon structures, but how this is achieved at central synapses without ribbons is unclear. Here we examine vesicle mobility at excitatory cerebellar mossy fibre synapses which sustain transmission over a broad frequency bandwidth. Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching in slices from VGLUT1Venus knock-in mice reveal 75% of VGLUT1-containing vesicles have a high mobility, comparable to that at ribbon synapses. Experimentally constrained models establish hydrodynamic interactions and vesicle collisions are major determinants of vesicle mobility in crowded presynaptic terminals. Moreover, models incorporating 3D reconstructions of vesicle clouds near active zones (AZs) predict the measured releasable pool size and replenishment rate from the reserve pool. They also show that while vesicle reloading at AZs is not diffusion-limited at the onset of release, *For correspondence: nusser@ diffusion limits vesicle reloading during sustained high-frequency signalling. koki.hu (ZN); [email protected] DOI: 10.7554/eLife.15133.001 (RAS) Competing interests: The authors declare that no competing interests exist.

These instruments will be used to record static (structural) and dynamic (behavioral) information at unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution and report out that information in a form suitable for computational analysis. We distinguish between recording — taking measurements of individual cells and the extracellu- lar matrix — and reporting — transcoding, packaging and transmitting the resulting information for subsequent analysis — as these represent very different challenges as we scale the relevant technologies to support simultaneously tracking the many neurons that comprise neural circuits of interest. We investigate a diverse set of technologies with the purpose of anticipating their devel- opment over the span of the next 10 years and categorizing their impact in terms of short-term [1-2 years], medium-term [2-5 years] and longer-term [5-10 years] deliverables.
