Entropy Gap as a Measure of Epistemic Caution in Credal Sets Generated from Data [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
Imprecise probability models generated from data represent epistemic uncertainty by replacing the precise empirical distribution with a set of compatible probability distributions.

Sherlock Holmes Doesn’t Play Dice: The Mathematics of Uncertain Reasoning When Something May Happen, That You Are Not Even Able to Figure Out [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
While Evidence Theory (also known as Dempster–Shafer Theory, or Belief Functions Theory) is being increasingly used in data fusion, its potentialities in the Social and Life Sciences are often obscured by lack of awareness of its distinctive features. In

Bayesian Network Based Imprecise Probability Estimation Method for Wind Power Ramp Events

open access: yesJournal of Modern Power Systems and Clean Energy, 2021
Although wind power ramp events (WPREs) are relatively scarce, they can inevitably deteriorate the stability of power system operation and bring risks to the trading of electricity market.

Systems of Precision: Coherent Probabilities on Pre-Dynkin Systems and Coherent Previsions on Linear Subspaces

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
In the literature on imprecise probability, little attention is paid to the fact that imprecise probabilities are precise on a set of events. We call these sets systems of precision.

Why Credences Cannot be Imprecise [PDF]

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems, 2014
Beliefs formed under uncertainty come in different grades, which are called credences or degrees of belief. The most common way of measuring the strength of credences is by ascribing probabilities to them.

Using inferred probabilities to measure the accuracy of imprecise forecasts [PDF]

open access: yesJudgment and Decision Making, 2012
Research on forecasting is effectively limited to forecasts that are expressed with clarity; which is to say that the forecasted event must be sufficiently well-defined so that it can be clearly resolved whether or not the event occurred and forecasts ...

Neutrosophic Structure of the Geometric Model with Applications [PDF]

open access: yesNeutrosophic Sets and Systems, 2023
In practical scenarios, it is common to encounter fuzzy data that contains numerous imprecise observations. The uncertainty associated with this type of data often leads to the use of interval statistical measures and the proposal of neutrosophic ...

Imprecise probability for non-commuting observables

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2015
It is known that non-commuting observables in quantum mechanics do not have joint probability. This statement refers to the precise (additive) probability model.

Imprecise Bayesian Networks as Causal Models

open access: yesInformation, 2018
This article considers the extent to which Bayesian networks with imprecise probabilities, which are used in statistics and computer science for predictive purposes, can be used to represent causal structure. It is argued that the adequacy conditions for

On Robust Maintenance Scheduling of Fatigue-prone Structural Systems Considering Imprecise Probability

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2013
Crack propagation in metallic mechanical components subject to cyclic loading may lead to loss of serviceability or even collapse. Often, these undesirable events may be prevented by performing appropriate maintenance activities.
