Some Formal Structures in Probability (Invited Talk)

pdf-format:


Abstract

This invited talk will discuss how developments in the Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction can also suggest new directions for the foundations of probability theory. I plan to focus on two aspects: abstraction, and laziness. I plan to highlight two challenges: higher-order random functions, and stochastic memoization.
