Landes, Jürgen; Paris, Jeff B. and Vencovská, Alena (2011): A Survey of Some Recent Results on Spectrum Exchangeability in Polyadic Inductive Logic. In: Synthese, Vol. 181, No. 1: pp. 19-47

Abstract

We give a unified account of some results in the development of Polyadic Inductive Logic in the last decade with particular reference to the Principle of Spectrum Exchangeability, its consequences for Instantial Relevance, Language Invariance and Johnson's Sufficientness Principle, and the corresponding de Finetti style representation theorems.
