Abstract
This review presents the well-known notion of merging, introduced by Blackwell and Dubins, and its later generalizations.While the original concept of merging refers to all future events, the two new concepts, of weak and of almost weak merging, are concerned only with forecasting near-future events.Necessary and sufficient conditions for almost weak merging and necessary conditions for weak merging are given.

Limiting the definition to prediction of near future events and to a full sequence of times yields the new notion of almost weak merging AWM, presented here and shows many cases with no absolute continuity that exhibit AWM.
