medical image registration methods which use mutual information as similarity measure have been improved in recent decades. mutual information is a basic concept of information theory which indicates the dependency of two random variables (or two images). in order to evaluate the mutual information of two images their joint probability distribution is required. several interpolation methods, su...

†‡ The present paper outlines a method for probabilistic multi-criteria decision making. Recognizing the limitations of traditional probabilistic methods in accounting for multiple decision criteria in conceptual or preliminary design, this new method combines probabilistic treatment of uncertain information with a multi-criteria decision making technique. The paper describes how the method add...

Probabilities and correlations in EPR experiments. The EPR-Bohm-Aharonov [1] system of two correlated spin-half particles or qubits observed by spatially separated observers has often been used as an arena in which to probe fundamental questions about quantum theory. Typically there are four different configurations corresponding to four different experiments and one obtains no-go theorems on (...

A new methodology for financial and insurance operational risk capital estimation is proposed. It is based on using the finite time probability of (non)ruin as an operational risk measure, under a general ruin probability model, according to which operational losses may have any joint (dependent) discrete or continuous distribution, and the function, describing the accumulation of risk capital ...
