Representing uncertainty on set-valued variables using belief functions
A formalism is proposed for representing uncertain information on set-valued variables using the formalism of belief functions. A set-valued variableX on a domain Ω is a variable taking zero, one or several values in Ω. While defining mass functions on the frame 22 Ω is usually not feasible because of the double-exponential complexity involved, we propose an approach based on a definition of a ...
متن کاملMonotone set-valued functions defined by set-valued Choquet integrals
In this paper, some properties of the monotone set-valued function defined by the set-valued Choquet integral are discussed. It is shown that several important structural characteristics of the original set function, such as null-additivity, strong order continuity, property(S) and pseudometric generating property, etc., are preserved by the new set-valued function. It is also shown that integr...
متن کاملClustering interval-valued proximity data using belief functions
The problem of clustering objects based on interval-valued dissimilarities is tackled in the framework of the Dempster-Shafer theory of belief functions. The proposed method assigns to each object a basic belief assignment (or mass function) defined on the set of clusters, in such a way that the belief and the plausibility that any two objects belong to the same cluster reflect, respectively, t...
متن کاملProbability on Finite Set and Real-Valued Random Variables
One can prove the following four propositions: (1) Let X be a non empty set, S1 be a σ-field of subsets of X, M be a σ-measure on S1, f be a partial function from X to R, E be an element of S1, and a be a real number. Suppose f is integrable on M and E ⊆ dom f and M(E) < +∞ and for every element x of X such that x ∈ E holds a ≤ f(x). Then R(a) ·M(E) ≤ ∫ f E dM. (2) Let X be a non empty set, S1 ...
متن کاملBelief Functions Based on Probabilistic Multivalued Random Variables
In this paper, we would like to give Dempster and Shafer's belief function theory an interpretation based on probabilistic multivalued random vari-ables(PMRV). While a random variable is a function from the sample space to the target space, a PMRV maps each point in the sample space to a probability distribution on the target one. By such interpretation , the belief and plausibility measures ar...
