Egalitarianism and evolution
An agent is inequity averse if their preferences reflect a distaste for material inequality. Inequity aversion is of both scientific and philosophical interest. In behavioral economics, it is central to popular explanations of “anomalous” behavior in resource-division games. In social and political philosophy, it is of interest because it embodies an egalitarian approach to distributive bargaining. We use the indirect evolutionary approach , an e…

Learning to Forget
Learning how to learn by self-tuning reinforcement
Humans and many animals are capable of learning and learning how to learn better. We are concerned here with one way that reinforcement learners might learn how to learn better. In an experiment described by Harlow in (Psychol Rev 56:51–65, 1949) a group of rhesus monkeys learn a new way of learning in the context of a specific type of problem. We will consider how such agents might coevolve a new learning dynamics and new attendant saliences. To…
Janina Hosiasson and the value of evidence
I.J. Good's "On the Principle of Total Evidence" (1967) looms large in decision theory and Bayesian epistemology. Good proves that in Savage's (1954) decision theory, a coherent agent always prefers to collect, rather than ignore, free evidence. It is now well known that Good's result was prefigured in an unpublished note by Frank Ramsey (Skyrms 2006). The present paper highlights another early forerunner to Good's argument, appearing in Janina H…
