Analysing the probabilistic background of mass functions
نویسنده
چکیده
The Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence (DS theory) is one of the major approaches for reasoning under uncertainty. Although in most of cases, the theory is regarded as a new terminology for dealing with uncertainty , it has been proved that DS theory is closed related to probability theory Fagin and Halpern, 1989]. In this paper, we discuss a probabilistic background of mass functions under Dempster's framework. This discussion suggests that the mass function comes out of probabilities and Dempster's framework implies the prototype of mass functions.

Completeness in Probabilistic Metric Spaces
The idea of probabilistic metric space was introduced by Menger and he showed that probabilistic metric spaces are generalizations of metric spaces. Thus, in this paper, we prove some of the important features and theorems and conclusions that are found in metric spaces. At the beginning of this paper, the distance distribution functions are proposed. These functions are essential in defining p...
متن کاملProbabilistic Normed Groups
In this paper, we introduce the probabilistic normed groups. Among other results, we investigate the continuityof inner automorphisms of a group and the continuity of left and right shifts in probabilistic group-norm. We also study midconvex functions defined on probabilistic normed groups and give some results about locally boundedness of such functions.

In this paper we introduce strong $I^K$-convergence of functions which is common generalization of strong $I^*$-convergence of functions in probabilistic metric spaces. We also define and study strong $I^{K}$-limit points of functions in same space.
متن کاملSupport vector regression with random output variable and probabilistic constraints
Support Vector Regression (SVR) solves regression problems based on the concept of Support Vector Machine (SVM). In this paper, a new model of SVR with probabilistic constraints is proposed that any of output data and bias are considered the random variables with uniform probability functions. Using the new proposed method, the optimal hyperplane regression can be obtained by solving a quadrati...
متن کاملRobust optimal multi-objective controller design for vehicle rollover prevention
Robust control design of vehicles addresses the effect of uncertainties on the vehicle’s performance. In present study, the robust optimal multi-objective controller design on a non-linear full vehicle dynamic model with 8-degrees of freedom having parameter with probabilistic uncertainty considering two simultaneous conflicting objective functions has been made to prevent the rollover. The obj...
