Alternative definitions of conditional possibilistic measures

Ivan Kramosil (1998)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to survey and discuss, very briefly, some ways how to introduce, within the framework of possibilistic measures, a notion analogous to that of conditional probability measure in probability theory. The adjective “analogous” in the last sentence is to mean that the conditional possibilistic measures should play the role of a mathematical tool to actualize one’s degrees of beliefs expressed by an a priori possibilistic measure, having obtained some further information...

On generalized information and divergence measures and their applications: a brief review.

Inder Jeet Taneja, Leandro Pardo, Domingo Morales, María Luisa Menéndez (1989)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

The aim of this review is to give different two-parametric generalizations of the following measures: directed divergence (Kullback and Leibler, 1951), Jensen difference divergence (Burbea and Rao 1982 a,b; Rao, 1982) and Jeffreys invariant divergence (Jeffreys, 1946). These generalizations are put in the unified expression and their properties are studied. The applications of generalized information and divergence measures to comparison of experiments and the connections with Fisher...
