Rectangular Sets of Probability Measures
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we consider the notion of rectangularity of a set of probability measures, introduced in Epstein and Schneider [4], from a somewhat different point of view. We define rectangularity as a property of dynamic decomposition of a distributionally robust stochastic optimization problem and show how it relates to the modern theory of coherent risk measures. Consequently we discuss robust formulations of multistage stochastic optimization problems in frameworks of Stochastic Programming, Stochastic Optimal Control and Markov Decision Processes.

Regularization by free additive convolution, square and rectangular cases
The free convolution ⊞ is the binary operation on the set of probability measures on the real line which allows to deduce, from the individual spectral distributions, the spectral distribution of a sum of independent unitarily invariant square random matrices or of a sum of free operators in a non commutative probability space. In the same way, the rectangular free convolution ⊞ λ allows to ded...
متن کاملApplication of tests of goodness of fit in determining the probability density function for spacing of steel sets in tunnel support system
One of the conventional methods for temporary support of tunnels is to use steel sets with shotcrete. The nature of a temporary support system demands a quick installation of its structures. As a result, the spacing between steel sets is not a fixed amount and it can be considered as a random variable. Hence, in the reliability analysis of these types of structures, the selection of an appropri...
متن کاملLarge amplitude vibration prediction of rectangular plates by an optimal artificial neural network (ANN)
In this paper, nonlinear equations of motion for laminated composite rectangular plates based on the first order shear deformation theory were derived. Using a perturbation method, the nonlinear equation of motion was solved and analytical relations were obtained for natural and nonlinear frequencies. After proving the validity of the obtained analytical relations, as an alternative and simple ...
متن کاملMultiparameter models: Probability distributions parameterized by random sets
This paper is devoted to the construction of sets of joint probability measures for the case that the marginal sets of probability measures are generated by probability measures with uncertain parameters where the uncertainty of these parameters is modelled by random sets. Further we show how different conditions on the choice of the weights of the joint focal sets and on the probability measur...
متن کاملSOME SIMILARITY MEASURES FOR PICTURE FUZZY SETS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS
In this work, we shall present some novel process to measure the similarity between picture fuzzy sets. Firstly, we adopt the concept of intuitionistic fuzzy sets, interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets and picture fuzzy sets. Secondly, we develop some similarity measures between picture fuzzy sets, such as, cosine similarity measure, weighted cosine similarity measure, set-theoretic similar...
