Full Title or Meme

A hypothesis is Corroborated if some series of tests can confirm the hypothesis about a Subject's Identity.

Context

Problem

Popper nicely described the problem in this way[1]

Instead of discussing the 'probability' of a hypothesis we should try to asses what tests, what trials, it has withstood; that is, we should try to assess how far it has been able to prove its fitness to survive by standing up to tests. In brief, we should try to assess how fart it has been Corroborated.

Solution

The article "Bayesian Identity Proofing" offers one statistical method of incrementally corroborating a User prior to Authorization.
