Abstract. Finding optimal policies for general partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) is computationally difficult primarily due to the need to perform dynamic-pr...
The aim of this paper is to test if conjunctive and disjunctive judgments are differently accounted for possibility and probability theories depending on whether (1) judgments are ...
Abstract A (general) preferential entailment is defined by a “preference relation” among “states”. States can be either interpretations or sets of interpretations, or “c...
Abstract. Intelligent agents have to be able to merge inputs received from different sources in a coherent and rational way. Recently, several proposals have been made for the merg...
Abstract. A great deal of research has been devoted to nontrivial reasoning in inconsistent knowledge bases. Coherence-based approaches proceed by a consolidation operation which s...
New semantics for numerical values given to possibility measures are provided. For epistemic possibilities, the new approach is based on the semantics of the transferable belief m...
Abstract. The K2 metric is a well-known evaluation measure (or scoring function) for learning Bayesian networks from data [7]. It is derived by assuming uniform prior distributions...
Abstract. Using mathematical morphology on formulas introduced recently by Bloch and Lang (Proceedings of IPMU’2000) we define two new explanatory relations. Their logical behav...
The term “changes in structure,” originating from work in econometrics, refers to structural modifications invoked by actions on a causal model. In this paper we formalize the...
