چکیده

A general notion of algebraic conditional plausibility measures is defined. Probability measures, ranking functions, possibility measures, and (under the appropriate definitions) sets of probability measures can all be viewed as defining algebraic conditional plausibility measures. It is shown that the technology of Bayesian networks can be applied to algebraic conditional plausibility measures.

Conditional Plausibility Measures and Bayesian

A general notion of algebraic conditional plausibility measures is deened. Probability measures, ranking functions, possibility measures, and (under the appropriate deenitions) sets of probability measures can all be viewed as deening algebraic conditional plausibility measures. It is shown that algebraic conditional plausibility measures can be represented using Bayesian networks.

An Introduction to Inference and Learning in Bayesian Networks

Bayesian networks (BNs) are modern tools for modeling phenomena in dynamic and static systems and are used in different subjects such as disease diagnosis, weather forecasting, decision making and clustering. A BN is a graphical-probabilistic model which represents causal relations among random variables and consists of a directed acyclic graph and a set of conditional probabilities. Structure...

Conditional non–additive measures and fuzzy sets

Consistency of partial assessments with different frameworks (probability, possibility, plausibility) is studied. We are interested in inferential processes like the Bayesian one, with particular attention when a part of the information is expressed in natural language and can be modeled by a possibilistic or a plausibilistic likelihood.

Bayesian Networks and the Evaluation of Scientific Evidence: a Theoretical Approach

Recently, methods that deal with formal analysis of decision making have been developed. Bayesian networks – also known as belief networks and causal probabilistic networks – provide a method of representing relationships between characteristics even if the relationships involve uncertainty, unpredictability or imprecision. This quantitative method assists the scientist not only in describing a...

Independence for Full Conditional Measures, Graphoids and Bayesian Networks

This paper examines definitions of independence for events and variables in the context of full conditional measures; that is, when conditional probability is a primitive notion and conditioning is allowed on null events. Several independence concepts are evaluated with respect to graphoid properties; we show that properties of weak union, contraction and intersection may fail when null events ...
