The load-bearing capacity of hanging piles by the strength criterion of a pile or soil material [PDF]
Инженерно-строительный журнал, 2016 The article describes various methods of assessment of load-bearing capacity (reliability) of a pile as a main element of pile foundation. It is shown that deterministic, probabilistic and possibilistic methods have a number of advantages and limitations.

Possibly extreme, probably not: Is possibility theory the route for risk‐averse decision‐making?
Atmospheric Science Letters, 2021 Ensemble forecasting has become popular in weather prediction to reflect the uncertainty about high‐dimensional, nonlinear systems with extreme sensitivity to initial conditions.

Mathematics, 2021 In this paper, we propose a family of indistinguishability operators, that we have called Yager Possibilitic Response Functions (YPRFs for short), as an appropriate tool for allocating tasks to a collective of agents. In order to select the best agent to

Valuation of Real Estate Investments through Fuzzy Logic
Buildings, 2017 This paper aims to outline the application of Fuzzy Logic in real estate investment. In literature, there is a wide theoretical background on real estate investment decisions, but there has been a lack of empirical support in this regard. For this reason,

Interval Estimation of Value-at-Risk Based on Nonparametric Models
Econometrics, 2018 Value-at-Risk (VaR) has become the most important benchmark for measuring risk in portfolios of different types of financial instruments. However, as reported by many authors, estimating VaR is subject to a high level of uncertainty.

POSSIBILITY THEORY II: CONDITIONAL POSSIBILITY [PDF]
International Journal of General Systems, 1997 Abstract It is shown that the nolion of conditional possibility can be consistently iniroduced in possibility theory, in very much the same way as conditional expectations and probabilities are defined in the measure- and integral-theoretic treatment of probability theory.

Generalized Slow Roll Conditions and the Possibility of Intermediate Scale Inflation in Scalar-Tensor Theory [PDF]
, 2001 Generalized slow roll conditions and parameters are obtained for a general form of scalar-tensor theory (with no external sources), having arbitrary functions describing a nonminimal gravitational coupling F(\phi), a Kahler-like kinetic function k(\phi),

A New Hybrid Possibilistic-Probabilistic Decision-Making Scheme for Classification
Entropy, 2021 Uncertainty is at the heart of decision-making processes in most real-world applications. Uncertainty can be broadly categorized into two types: aleatory and epistemic.

Towards a Model of Argument Strength for Bipolar Argumentation Graphs
Studies in Logic, Grammar and Rhetoric, 2018 Bipolar argument graphs represent the structure of complex pro and contra arguments for one or more standpoints. In this article, ampliative and exclusionary principles of evaluating argument strength in bipolar acyclic argumentation graphs are laid out ...
