The Aggregation of Imprecise Probabilities
Two methods are presented for the aggregation of imprecise probabilities elicited from a group of experts in terms of betting rates. In the

Examples of Independence for Imprecise Probabilities
In this paper we try to clarify the notion of independence for imprecise probabilities. Our main point is that there are several possible definitions of independence which are app...

Lower Desirability Functions: A Convenient Imprecise Hierarchical Uncertainty Model
I introduce and study a fairly general imprecise secondorder uncertainty model, in terms of lower desirability. A modeller's lower desirability for a gamble is defined as her...

Imprecise and Indeterminate Probabilities
Bayesian advocates of expected utility maximization use sets of probability distributions to represent very different ideas. Strict Bayesians insist that probability judgment is n...

Open-frame Dempster Conditioning for Incomplete Interval Probabilities
The second author has put forward a theory of incomplete interval probabilities meant to give a common framework to both interval probabilities and openframe bodies of evidence, a...

Modeling Ellsberg's Paradox in Vague-Vague Cases
We explore a generalization of Ellsberg's paradox (2color scenario) to the Vague-Vague (V-V) case, in which neither of the probabilities (urns) is specified precisely, but on...

Axiomatic Characterization of Partial Ordinal Relations
In this paper we focus on the theoretical properties of non-numerical representation of the uncertainty. As usual, this representation is realized by an ``ordinal relation'&#...

Imprecise Probabilities Relating to Prior Reliability Assessments
The paper summarizes the author's experience in dealing with the Dempster-Shafer theory relating to reliability assessments and demonstrates how to make component and system ...
