Knowledge integration for Conditional Probability Assessments
In the probabilistic approach tb uncertainty management the input knowledge is usually represented by means of some probability distributions. In this paper we assume that the input knowledge is given by two discrete conditional probability distributions, represented by two stochastic matrices P and Q. The consistency of the knowledge base is analyzed. Coherence conditions and explicit formulas...
متن کاملSome Theoretical Properties of Interval-Valued Conditional Probability Assessments
In this paper we consider interval-valued conditional probability assessments on finite families of conditional events. Based on the coherence principle of de Finetti, we give some preliminary results on precise and imprecise probability assessments, by recalling the properties of avoiding uniform loss (AUL), which coincides with the notion of g-coherence, and of coherence introduced by Walley....
متن کاملA Consistency Problem for Imprecise Conditional Probability Assessments
In this paper we introduce an operational procedure which, given an avoiding sure loss (ASL) imprecise probability assessment on an arbitrary finite set of conditional events, determines its ‘leastcommittal’ coherent correction, i.e. the coherent imprecise probability assessment which reduces the imprecision of as little as possible, without ever increasing it. Besides, a new proof of the consi...
متن کاملCoherent probability from incoherent judgment.
People often have knowledge about the chances of events but are unable to express their knowledge in the form of coherent probabilities. This study proposed to correct incoherent judgment via an optimization procedure that seeks the (coherent) probability distribution nearest to a judge's estimates of chance. This method was applied to the chances of simple and complex meteorological events, as...
