Luce's Choice Axiom
In probability theory, Luce's choice axiom, formulated by R. Duncan Luce (1959), states that the probability of selecting one item over another from a pool of many items is not affected by the presence or absence of other items in the pool. Selection of this kind is said to have "independence of irrelevant alternatives, independence from irrelevant alternatives" (IIA). Overview Consider a set X of possible outcomes, and consider a selection rule P, such that for any a\in A \subset X with A a finite set, the selector selects a from A with probability P(a , A). Luce proposed two choice axioms. The second one is usually meant by "Luce's choice axiom", as the first one is usually called "independence of irrelevant alternatives, independence from irrelevant alternatives" (IIA). Luce's choice axiom 1 (IIA): if P(a, A) = 0, P(b, A) > 0, then for any a, b \in B \subset \textA, we still have P(a, B) = 0. Luce's choice axiom 2 ("path independence"): P(a , A) = P(a, B)\sum_P(b, A)for any a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
