Special Session on
"THEORETICAL AND APPLIED ASPECTS OF IMPRECISE PROBABILITIES" to be held at the 20th International Conference on Information Processing and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge-Based Systems (IPMU 2022) https://ipmu2024.inesc-id.pt/ Lisbon (Portugal), July 22-26, 2024
Session topic and goal
This session is devoted to Imprecise Probability Theory. This theory involves all the mathematical models that can be used as more flexible tools than usual Probability Theory when the available information is scarce, vague or incomplete. It includes lower previsions, n-monotone capacities, belief functions, possibility measures, or non-additive measures, among others. This special session aims to include papers related to Imprecise Probabilities that either present a significant advance in the foundations or show potential applications in real problems. In addition, papers where the connection between imprecise probability theories and other fields such as fuzzy sets or game theory is emphasized are also welcome.
Theoretical topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- (coherent) uncertainty models
- non-additive set-functions
- qualitative reasoning about uncertainty
- limit laws for imprecise probabilities
- philosophical foundations
- elicitation and inference
- robust statistics
- decision making
- algorithmic issues
Applications include (but are not limited to):
- data mining
- classification and machine learning
- risk and reliability analysis
- finance
- life sciences
- system control and design
