Abstract
We are often uncertain about the identity of objects. This
phenomenon appears in theories of object persistence in early childhood;
in the well-known Morning Star/Evening Star example; in tracking and
data association systems for radar; in security systems based on
personal identification; and in many aspects of our everyday lives. The
paper presents a formal probabilistic approach to reasoning about
identity under uncertainty in the framework of first-order logics of
probability, with application to wide-area freeway traffic monitoring
