摘要
The conditional probability formula is supposed to reflect the correct updating of probability assignments when new information is incorporated. Starting from a non-atomic probability measure, it is proved that the conditional probability formula provides the only transformed probability measure satisfying a "minimum requirement" relational assumption. This result applies to the standard Bayesian parametric model.
