The Failure-tree Analysis Based on Imprecise Probability and its Application on Tunnel Project

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2017
Due to the inherent uncertainties in ground and groundwater conditions, tunnel projects often have to face potential risks of cost overrun or schedule delay.

Imprecise Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This chapter explores the topic of imprecise probabilities (IP) as it relates to model validation. IP is a family of formal methods that aim to provide a better representation of severe uncertainty than is possible with standard probabilistic methods. Among the methods discussed here are using sets of probabilities to represent uncertainty, and using ...

Stable Non-standard Imprecise Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Stability arises as the consistency criterion in a betting interpretation for hyperreal imprecise previsions, that is imprecise previsions (and probabilities) which may take infinitesimal values. The purpose of this work is to extend the notion of stable coherence introduced in [8] to conditional hyperreal imprecise probabilities.

Hitting Times and Probabilities for Imprecise Markov Chains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We consider the problem of characterising expected hitting times and hitting probabilities for imprecise Markov chains. To this end, we consider three distinct ways in which imprecise Markov chains have been defined in the literature: as sets of ...

Bayesian Learning for a Class of Priors with Prescribed Marginals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present Bayesian updating of an imprecise probability measure, represented by a class of precise multidimensional probability measures. Choice and analysis of our class are motivated by expert interviews that we conducted with modelers in the context ...

Combining Binary Classifiers with Imprecise Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This paper proposes a simple framework to combine binary classifiers whose outputs are imprecise probabilities (or are transformed into some imprecise probabilities, e.g., by using confidence intervals). This combination comes down to solve linear programs describing constraints over events (here, subsets of classes).

Modeling rational decisions in ambiguous situations: a multi-valued logic approach

open access: yesBusiness Research, 2019
If a decision context is completely precise, making good decisions is relatively easy. In the presence of ambiguity, rational decision-making is incomparably more challenging.

Criticality assessment risk; contribution of fuzzy logic [PDF]

open access: yesYugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2018
In order to determine the criticality of a risk, an assessment of the probability of occurrence (notion of frequency) and of the impact (notion of severity) are to be estimated.

Believing Probabilistic Contents: On the Expressive Power and Coherence of Sets of Sets of Probabilities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Moss (2018) argues that rational agents are best thought of not as having degrees of belief in various propositions but as having beliefs in probabilistic contents, or probabilistic beliefs.
