چکیده
Possibilistic networks are important tools for dealing with uncertain pieces of information. For multiplyconnected networks, it is well known that the inference process is a hard problem. This paper studies a new representation of possibilistic networks, called hybrid possibilistic networks. The uncertainty is no longer represented by local conditional possibility distributions, but by their compact representations which are possibilistic knowledge bases. We show that the inference algorithm in hybrid networks is strictly more efficient than the ones of standard propagation algorithm.

Possibilistic Networks with Locally Weighted Knowledge Bases
Possibilistic networks and possibilistic logic bases are important tools to deal with uncertain pieces of information. Both of them offer a compact representation of possibility distributions. This paper studies a new representation format, called hybrid possibilistic networks, which cover both standard possibilistic networks and possibilistic knowledge bases. An adaptation of propagation algor...
متن کاملAn Overview of Hybrid Possibilistic Reasoning
The objective of this paper is to introduce the hybrid logic methodology into possibilistic reasoning. It has been well-known that possibilistic logic has some strong modal logic flavor. However, modal logic lacks the capability of referring to states or possible worlds though states are crucial to its semantics. Hybrid logic circumvents the problem by blending the classical logic mechanism int...
متن کاملSyntactic Computation of Hybrid Possibilistic Conditioning under Uncertain Inputs
We extend hybrid possibilistic conditioning to deal with inputs consisting of a set of triplets composed of propositional formulas, the level at which the formulas should be accepted, and the way in which their models should be revised. We characterize such conditioning using elementary operations on possibility distributions. We then solve a difficult issue that concerns the syntactic computat...

متن کاملProduct-based Causal Networks and Quantitative Possibilistic Bases
In possibility theory, there are two kinds of possibilistic causal networks depending if possibilistic conditioning is based on the minimum or on the product operator. Similarly there are also two kinds of possibilistic logic: standard (min-based) possibilistic logic and quantitative (product-based) possibilistic logic. Recently, several equivalent transformations between standard possibilistic...
