چکیده

Choquet capacities are a generalization of probability measures that arise in robustness, decision theory and game theory. Many capacities that arise in robustness are symmetric or can be transformed into symmetric capacities. We characterize the extreme points of the set of upper distribution functions corresponding to coherent, symmetric Choquet capacities on [0,1]. We also show that the set of 2-altemating capacities is a simplex and we give a Choquet representation of this set.

Bi - capacities

We introduce bi-capacities as a natural generalization of capacities (or fuzzy measures) through the identity of Choquet integral of binary alternatives with fuzzy measures. We examine the underlying structure and derive the Möbius transform of bi-capacities. Next, the Choquet and Sugeno integrals w.r.t bicapacities are introduced. It is shown that symmetric and asymmetric integrals are recover...

k-intolerant capacities and Choquet integrals

We define an aggregation function to be (at most) k-intolerant if it is bounded from above by its kth lowest input value. Applying this definition to the discrete Choquet integral and its underlying capacity, we introduce the concept of k-intolerant capacities which, when varying k from 1 to n, cover all the possible capacities on n objects. Just as the concepts of k-additive capacities and p-s...

Une approche constructive de la décision multicritère A constructive approach to multicriteria decision making

and key words After a general introduction on multicriteria decision aid, we briefly present the two main approaches (outranking methods, multi-attribute utility). Then we focus on the multi-attribute utility framework, which we build in a new perspective, based on the MACBETH methodology and the notion of capacity. We show that the Choquet integral appears as a natural tool for aggregating cri...

Symmetric Upper Probabilities

As a first step toward developing statistical models based on upper and lower probabilities, we study upper probabilities and upper expectations on the unit interval that are symmetric, by which we mean invariant with respect to equimeasurability. These upper probabilities are generalizations of uniform probability measures. We give some characterizations of these upper probabilities. Specifica...

Axiomatic structure of k-additive capacities

In this paper we deal with the problem of axiomatizing the preference relations modelled through Choquet integral with respect to a k-additive capacity, i.e. whose Möbius transform vanishes for subsets of more than k elements. Thus, k-additive capacities range from probability measures (k = 1) to general capacities (k = n). The axiomatization is done in several steps, starting from symmetric 2-...
