Elicitation, assessment, and pooling of expert judgments using possibility theory
The problem of modelling expert knowledge about numerical parameters in the field of reliability is reconsidered in the framework of possibility theory. Usually expert opinions about quantities such as failure rates are modelled, assessed and pooled in the setting of probability theory. This approach does not seem to always be natural since probabilistic information looks too rich to be current...
متن کاملExpert Elicitation of Adversary Preferences Using Ordinal Judgments
Obtaining probabilistic judgments from subject-matter experts is a difficult task, especially when those experts are not quantitatively trained. In this paper, we introduce a simple elicitation process where intelligence experts express their knowledge about adversary preferences by rank ordering the attractiveness of a collection of possible terrorist targets (or attack strategies), where the ...
متن کاملCombining Expert Judgments: the Classical and Copula Methods
Introduction Simulation models are frequently used to evaluate the effects of the energy and other economic sectors on the environment, safety, and other areas of concern. In many important contexts, such as risks of global climate change and risks of accident at nuclear power plants, key model parameters cannot be empirically estimated, and so values are obtained by expert judgment. While it s...
متن کاملUsing an expert panel to validate a requirements process improvement model
In this paper we present components of a newly developed software process improvement model that aims to represent key practices in requirements engineering (RE). Our model is developed in response to practitioner needs highlighted in our empirical work with UK software development companies. We have now reached the stage in model development where we need some independent feedback as to how we...
متن کاملCombining Experts’ Causal Judgments
Consider a policymaker who wants to decide which intervention to perform in order to change a currently undesirable situation. The policymaker has at her disposal a team of experts, each with their own understanding of the causal dependencies between different factors contributing to the outcome. The policymaker has varying degrees of confidence in the experts’ opinions. She wants to combine th...
