Empirical means by observation, so empirical probability, or experimental probability, is the probability that is observed in a set of trials. For example, if you flip a coin ten times and get seven heads, your empirical probability is 7 in 10. This is different than the theoretical probability, which for a fair coin is 5 in 10, but that result will only be approximated by the empirical results, and then only with a larger number of trials.
