Qualitative Decision Theory
We describe a framework for specifying conditional desires “desire CY by E degrees if ,8” and evaluating preference queries “would you prefer ~1 over ~2 given $” under uncertainty. We refine the semantics presented in (Tan & Pearl 1994) to allow conditional desires to be overridden by more specific desires in the database. Within this framework, we also enable consideration of surprising worlds...
متن کاملQualitative Decision Making with Bipolar Information
Decisions can be evaluated by sets of positive and negative arguments — the problem is then to compare these sets. Studies in psychology have shown that in this case the scale of evaluation of decisions is generally bipolar. Moreover decisions are often made on the basis of an ordinal ranking of the arguments rather than on a genuine numerical evaluation of their degrees of attractiveness or re...
متن کاملQualitative decision theory and multistage decision making: A possibilistic approach
Recently, a qualitative approach to decision under uncertainty has been proposed in the framework of possibility theory by two of the authors, where a counterpart of the probabilistic expected utility has been deened, distinguishing between a pessimistic qualitative utility and an optimistic one which can be used for reening the former. In this framework, multistage decision problems can be dee...
متن کاملIndependence and Qualitative Decision Theory
Probabilistic independence has proved to be a fundamental tool that can dramatically simplify the task of eliciting, representing, and computing with probabilities. We advance the position that notions of utility independence can serve similar functions when reasoning about preferences and utilities during decision making. In this paper we first summarize existing results and definitions concer...
متن کاملBackground to Qualitative Decision Theory
qualitative decision theory: its motivating tasks and issues, its antecedents, and its prospects. Qualitative decision theory studies qualitative approaches to problems of decision making and their sound and effective reconciliation and integration with quantitative approaches. Although it inherits from a long tradition, the field offers a new focus on a number of important unanswered questions...
