Andrea Brandolini, Fernando Ferroni, Patrizia Tavella | Uncertainty and knowledge

21 october

Uncertainty is a central and essential component of a modern scientific vision of the world, both in social sciences and in so-called “exact” sciences. Our information on the world is in fact the result of observation and measurement which always has a margin of error that can be reduced and evaluated but never entirely eliminated. An increasingly accurate quantitative evaluation of uncertainties is one of the more tangible manifestations of the progress of science, and of our knowledge.
