Mathematics: Probability and Statistics: Computational Probability: Explorations of Hybrid Symbolic-Probabilistic Mathematics

Abstract

The major goals, as outlined in the proposal fall into three categories. 1. Improve the computer algebra system called A Probability Programming Language (APPL) in various was: make it completely open source and free by transferring it to Python (not Maple), beta test the new version in the class room and in research. 2. Use APPL to find new distributions and new properties of probabilistic models in a number of ways: explore the base proportion method, explore the fully enumerated bootstrap, explore ad hoc distributions that are a super set of the triangular distributions. 3. Propagate and advertise the use of APPL to the academic community through publications, presentations, and articles on how to use APPL and what are some of the results from APPL.
