*Título:*What was he trying to do? Our (plausible) story behind Thomas
Bayes's infamous theorem



*Palestrante:*Márcio A. Diniz (UFSCar)

*Resumo:*

On December 22, 1763, John Canton, a physicist and school master, read a
paper about probability before the Royal Society of London. The author was
a clergyman that had died more than two years before, and the paper was
found among his notes by a common friend, a Welsh minister named Richard
Price. But how did this priest came up with those ideas of ``inverse
probability''? Why he tried his hand on the problem? Those questions were
our main motivations. Our (tentative) answers teach us important lessons
even for modern scientists.

*Autores:*

Márcio A. Diniz (UFSCar) and David R. Bellhouse (Univ. of Western Ontario)
