Constructing imprecise probability distributions

International Journal of General Systems, 2005
In this current paper the following problems are addressed: (1) extending the knowledge of a partially known probability distribution function to any point of a continuous sample space, (2) constructing an imprecise probability distribution based on the knowledge of a set of credible or confidence intervals, and (3) computing the lower and upper ...

Imprecise probabilities and scenarios

Futures, 2005
Abstract This paper argues that imprecise probability can be used to describe uncertainty about scenarios. Scenarios are conceptualized as written descriptions of potential future worlds that are based on assessments of economic, political, social, technological, and environmental trends [This description of scenarios follows that provided by Peter ...

Decision Making with Imprecise Probabilities

1994
In many decision problems the only information available about a random event is expert opinion. The theory of imprecise probabilities, a generalization of standard subjective probability, allows us to deal with such information. In this paper the use of imprecise probabilities is discussed, with emphasis on elicitation and combination of opinions and ...

Probability Inequalities with Imprecise Previsions

We investigate how various well known probability inequalities extend to lower and upper previsions. Our focus is especially on Markov’s, Bhatia-Davis, Jensen’s and Cantelli’s inequalities. In all such cases, imprecise versions of these inequalities are available even requiring the weak consistency notion of 2-coherence, which implies that they obtain ...

Algorithms for Imprecise Probabilities

2000
This paper reviews local computation algorithms to calculate with imprecise probabilities. Most of the existing work on imprecise probabilities has focused on the particular case of interval probabilities [Amarger et al., 1991; de Campos and Huete, 1993; de Campos et al., 1994; Dubois and Prade, 1994; Fagin and Halpern, 1991; Fertig and Breese, 1990 ...

Aggregation of Imprecise Probabilities

1998
Methods to aggregate convex sets of probabilities are proposed. Source reliability is taken into account by transforming the given information and making it less precise. An important property of the aggregation will be that the precision of the result will depend on the initial compatibility of sources. Special attention will be paid to the particular
