An Interval-Valued Utility Theory for Decision Making with Dempster-Shafer Belief Functions [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 2019
The main goal of this paper is to describe an axiomatic utility theory for Dempster-Shafer belief function lotteries. The axiomatic framework used is analogous to von Neumann-Morgenstern's utility theory for probabilistic lotteries as described by Luce ...

Empathy predicts false belief reasoning ability: Evidence from the N400 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Interpreting others’ actions relies on an understanding of their current mental state. Emerging research has begun to identify a number of factors that give rise to individual differences in this ability.

A Structuralist Theory of Belief Revision [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The present paper aims at a synthesis of belief revision theory with the Sneed formalism known as the structuralist theory of science. This synthesis is brought about by a dynamisation of classical structuralism, with an abductive inference rule and base

Credible Information, Allowable Information and Belief Revision - Extended Abstract [PDF]

open access: yesElectronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2019
In an earlier paper [Rational choice and AGM belief revision, Artificial Intelligence, 2009] a correspondence was established between the choice structures of revealed-preference theory (developed in economics) and the syntactic belief revision ...

Conflict management in information fusion with belief functions [PDF]

open access: yesInformation Quality in Information Fusion and Decision Making, 2017
In Information fusion, the conflict is an important concept. Indeed, combining several imperfect experts or sources allows conflict. In the theory of belief functions, this notion has been discussed a lot.

Preferential Belief Change Using Generalized Epistemic Entrenchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
A sentence A is epistemically less entrenched in a belief state K than a sentence B if and only if a person in belief state K who is forced to give up either A or B will give up A and hold on to B.

Belief-Logic Conflict Resolution in Syllogistic Reasoning: Inspection-Time Evidence for a Parallel-Process Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
An experiment is reported examining dual-process models of belief bias in syllogistic reasoning using a problem complexity manipulation and an inspection-time method to monitor processing latencies for premises and conclusions.

Probability Functions, Belief Functions and Infinite Regresses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
In a recent paper Ronald Meester and Timber Kerkvliet argue by example that infinite epistemic regresses have different solutions depending on whether they are analyzed with probability functions or with belief functions.

A Novel Intelligent Fault Diagnosis Method Based on Variational Mode Decomposition and Ensemble Deep Belief Network

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
The deep belief network is widely used in fault diagnosis and health management of rotating machinery. However, on the one hand, deep belief networks only tend to focus on the global information of bearing vibration, ignoring local information.

Belief functions and belief maintenance in artificial intelligence

open access: yesInternational Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 1990
The idea for this special issue first arose at the Fourth Workshop on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence (AI) held at Minneapolis, Minnesota, in July 1988. Jim Bezdek, the editor-in-chief of this journal, asked us if we were willing to act as guest editors.
