Affinity and Continuity of Credal Set Operator

نویسنده

  • Tomáš Kroupa
چکیده

The credal set operator is studied as a set-valued mapping that assigns the set of dominating probabilities to a coherent lower prevision on some set of gambles. It is shown that this mapping is affine on certain classes of coherent lower previsions, which enables to find a decomposition of credal sets. Continuity of the credal set operator is investigated on finite universes with the aim of approximating credal sets.

Credal Compositional Models and Credal Networks

This paper studies the composition operator for credal sets introduced at the last ISIPTA conference in more detail. Our main attention is devoted to the relationship between a special type of compositional model, so-called perfect sequences of credal sets, and those of (precise) probability distributions, with the goal of finding the relationship between credal compositional models and credal ...

L-FUZZY BILINEAR OPERATOR AND ITS CONTINUITY

The purpose of this paper is to introduce the concept of L-fuzzybilinear operators. We obtain a decomposition theorem for L-fuzzy bilinearoperators and then prove that a L-fuzzy bilinear operator is the same as apowerset operator for the variable-basis introduced by S.E.Rodabaugh (1991).Finally we discuss the continuity of L-fuzzy bilinear operators.

Characterization and Empirical Evaluation of Bayesian and Credal Combination Operators

Bayesian theory [5] is one of the most commonly utilized theories for managing uncertainty in information fusion [20, 12]. The theory relies on two main assumptions: (1) a probability function should be used for representing belief and (2) Bayes’ theorem should be used for belief updating when a new observation has been made. The main criticism of Bayesian theory that can be found in the litera...

Operator of Composition for Credal Sets

This paper is the first attempt to introduce the operator of composition, already known from probability, possibility and evidence theories, also for credal sets. We prove that the proposed definition preserves all the necessary properties of the operator enabling us to define compositional models as an efficient tool for multidimensional models representation. Theoretical results are accompani...

A SYSTEM OF GENERALIZED VARIATIONAL INCLUSIONS INVOLVING G-eta-MONOTONE MAPPINGS

We introduce a new concept of general $G$-$eta$-monotone operator generalizing the general $(H,eta)$-monotone operator cite{arvar2, arvar1}, general $H-$ monotone operator cite{xiahuang} in Banach spaces, and also generalizing $G$-$eta$-monotone operator cite{zhang}, $(A, eta)$-monotone operator cite{verma2}, $A$-monotone operator cite{verma0}, $(H, eta)$-monotone operator cite{fanghuang}...
