Epistemic Uncertainty Propagation in Reliability Assessment of Complex Systems
Uncertainties are present in any reliability calculations due to randomness in the failure/repair phenomena and given the limitation in assessing the parameters of the failure/repair probability density functions. The simplifications and idealizations also generate uncertainties which can be classified as aleatory (arising due to randomness) and/or epistemic (due to lack of knowledge). It is ve...
متن کاملModeling of Epistemic Uncertainty in Reliability Analysis of Structures Using a Robust Genetic Algorithm
In this paper the fuzzy structural reliability index was determined through modeling epistemic uncertainty arising from ambiguity in statistical parameters of random variables. The First Order Reliability Method (FORM) has been used and a robust genetic algorithm in the alpha level optimization method has been proposed for the determination of the fuzzy reliability index. The sensitivity level ...
متن کاملRobustness-based portfolio optimization under epistemic uncertainty
In this paper, we propose formulations and algorithms for robust portfolio optimization under both aleatory uncertainty (i.e., natural variability) and epistemic uncertainty (i.e., imprecise probabilistic information) arising from interval data. Epistemic uncertainty is represented using two approaches: (1) moment bounding approach and (2) likelihood-based approach. This paper first proposes a ...
متن کاملNumerical Probabilistic Analysis under Aleatory and Epistemic Uncertainty
This paper discusses Numerical Probabilistic Analysis (NPA) for problems under aleatory and epistemic uncertainty. The basis of NPA are numerical operations on probability density functions of the random values and probabilistic extensions. The numerical operations of the histogram arithmetic constitute the major component of NPA. The concepts of natural, probabilistic and histogram extensions ...
متن کاملSoftware Metrics and Reliability
The IEEE defines reliability as “The ability of a system or component to perform its required functions under stated conditions for a specified period of time.” To most project and software development managers, reliability is equated to correctness, that is, they look to testing and the number of “bugs” found and fixed. While finding and fixing bugs discovered in testing is necessary to assure...
