We contrast three decision rules that extend Expected Utility to contexts where a convex set of probabilities is used to depict uncertainty: Γ-Maximin, Maximality, and E-admissib...

In this paper we present a Lagrange-multiplier formulation of discrete constrained optimization problems, the associated discrete-space first-order necessary and sufficient condit...
Abstract. Hierarchical neural networks show many benefits when employed for classification problems even when only simple methods analogous to decision trees are used to retrieve t...

Abstract. I develop a compositional theory of refinement for the branching time framework based on stuttering simulation and prove that if one system refines another, then a refine...
A major problem in requirements engineering is obtaining requirements that address the concerns of multiple stakeholders. An approach to such a problem is the Theory-W based Spira...
