Outer approximating coherent lower probabilities with belief functions
International Journal of Approximate Reasoning, 2019 From an epistemic point of view, coherent lower probabilities allow us to model the imprecise information about a partially unknown probability. However, there are some issues that hinder their use in practice.

A Behavioral Interpretation of Belief Functions [PDF]
Journal of Theoretical Probability, 2017 Shafer's belief functions were introduced in the seventies of the previous century as a mathematical tool in order to model epistemic probability. One of the reasons that they were not picked up by mainstream probability was the lack of a behavioral interpretation. In this paper we provide such a behavioral interpretation, and re-derive Shafer's belief

Application of belief functions theory to non destructive testing of industrial pieces
, 2022 S.209-218In this contribution we present a classification method based on the evidence theory where a comparison between modeling with and without conflict is presented as well as a comparison between the orthogonal and cautious fusion rules.

A Reliability-Based Multisensor Data Fusion with Application in Target Classification
Sensors, 2020 The theory of belief functions has been extensively utilized in many practical applications involving decision making. One such application is the classification of target based on the pieces of information extracted from the individual attributes ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

Combining partially independent belief functions [PDF]
Decision Support Systems, 2015 The theory of belief functions manages uncertainty and also proposes a set of combination rules to aggregate opinions of several sources. Some combination rules mix evidential information where sources are independent; other rules are suited to combine ...

Hybridization of Bayesian networks and belief functions to assess risk. Application to aircraft deconstruction [PDF]
, 2011 This paper aims to present a study on knowledge management for the disassembly of end-of-life aircraft. We propose a model using Bayesian networks to assess risk and present three approaches to integrate the belief functions standing for the ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.
