Disaggregated total uncertainty measure for credal sets
We present a new approach to measure uncertainty/information applicable to theories based on convex sets of probability distributions, also called credal sets. A definition of a total disaggregated uncertainty measure on credal sets is proposed in this paper motivated by recent outcomes. This definition is based on the upper and lower values of Shannon’s entropy for a credal set. We justify the...
متن کاملAdditivity of uncertainty measures on credal sets
A general way of representing incomplete information is to use closed and convex sets of probability distributions, which are also called credal sets. Each credal set is associated with uncertainty, whose amount is quantified by an appropriate uncertainty measure. One of the requisite properties of uncertainty measures is the property of additivity, which is associated with the concept of indep...
متن کاملEvenly Convex Credal Sets
An evenly convex credal set is a set of probability measures that is evenly convex; that is, a set that is an intersection of open halfspaces. An evenly convex credal set can for instance encode preference judgments through strict and non-strict inequalities such as P (A) > 1/2 and P (A) ≤ 2/3. This paper presents an axiomatization of evenly convex sets from preferences, where we introduce a ne...
متن کاملSets of Desirable Gambles and Credal Sets
Sets of desirable gambles were proposed by Walley [7] as a general theory of imprecise probability. The main reasons for this are: it is a very general model, including as particular cases most of the existing theories for imprecise probability; it has a deep and simple axiomatic justification; and mathematical definitions are natural and intuitive. However, there is still a lot of work to be d...
متن کاملOperator 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...
