    Brössel, Eder & Huber

    contemporaryFormal Epistemology

    Brössel, Eder & Huber is a collaborative grouping of three contemporary formal epistemologists — Peter Brössel, Anna-Maria Eder, and Franz Huber — who have co-authored work on principles of epistemic rationality and belief revision. Their joint contributions focus on the foundations of Bayesian and ranking-theoretic approaches to rational credence, particularly the comparative justification of principles like Maximum Entropy. Each brings independent expertise in formal epistemology to their collaborative analyses.

    Contributed to the justification of epistemic rationality constraints under uncertainty

    3

    Advanced formal frameworks for evaluating principles of prior probability assignment
