1989
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning
This paper examines an objection to maximum entropy updating and argues that the problem arises from an inadequate representation of causal information. The objection is that maximum entropy updating renders probabilistically dependent previously independent events when probabilistic information about an effect of the two events is presented. It is believed by many that such information should not render the events dependent. This paper accepts the view that independence should be preserved by
