Typicality Defended
arXiv:0707.4169
Abstract
Hartle and Srednicki have argued that there is no observational evidence favoring our typicality. Here it is shown that such evidence does arise from including the `normalization principle' requirement that the sum of the likelihoods for all possible observations is normalized to unity in each theory.
