Decision Theory Based on Non-Additive Measures
The notion and theory of statistical decision functions are re-considered and modified to the case when the uncertainties in question are quantified and processed using lattice-valued possibilistic measures, so emphasizing rather the qualitative than the quantitative properties of the resulting possibilistic decision functions. Possibilistic variants of both the minimax (the worst-case) and the Bayesian optimization principles are introduced and analyzed.
Total orderings in the range of fuzzy sets can serve as choice criteria for fuzzy sets, a wide class of orderings based on functions is proposed (section 2). Decomposable measures are taken to measure the items on which the fuzzy sets are given (section 3). Combining the two levels of measurement by means of the integral introduced by the second author we obtain evaluations of fuzzy sets as functionals with appropriate properties, the concepts of energy and fuzziness are included (section 4).
We present a categorical approach to the extension of probabilities, i.e. normed -additive measures. J. Novák showed that each bounded -additive measure on a ring of sets is sequentially continuous and pointed out the topological aspects of the extension of such measures on over the generated -ring : it is of a similar nature as the extension of bounded continuous functions on a completely regular topological space over its Čech-Stone compactification (or as the extension of continuous...
We discuss two ways to construct standard probability measures, called push-down measures, from internal probability measures. We show that the Wasserstein distance between an internal probability measure and its push-down measure is infinitesimal. As an application to standard probability theory, we show that every finitely-additive Borel probability measure on a separable metric space is a limit of a sequence of countably-additive Borel probability measures in the sense that for all bounded...
In this paper further development of Chebyshev type inequalities for Sugeno integrals based on an aggregation function and a scale transformation is given. Consequences for T-(S-)evaluators are established.
We introduce a fuzzy equality for -observables on an -quantum space which enables us to characterize different kinds of convergences, and to represent them by pointwise functions on an appropriate measurable space.
We have modified the axiomatic system of orness measures, originally introduced by Kishor in 2014, keeping altogether four axioms. By proposing a fuzzy orness measure based on the inner product of lattice operations, we compare our orness measure with Yager's one which is based on the inner product of arithmetic operations. We prove that fuzzy orness measure satisfies the newly proposed four axioms and propose a method to determine OWA operator with given fuzzy orness degree.
The procedures for constructing a fuzzy number and a fuzzy-valued function from a family of closed intervals and two families of real-valued functions, respectively, are proposed in this paper. The constructive methodology follows from the form of the well-known “Resolution Identity” (decomposition theorem) in fuzzy sets theory. The fuzzy-valued measure is also proposed by introducing the notion of convergence for a sequence of fuzzy numbers. Under this setting, we develop the fuzzy-valued integral...
By means of two general operations + and x, called pan-operations'', we build a new kind of integral. This formulation contains, as particular cases, both Choquet's and Sugeno's integrals.
The notion of a construction of a fuzzy preference structures is introduced. The properties of a certain class of generated fuzzy implications are studied. The main topic in this paper is investigation of the construction of the monotone generator triplet , which is the producer of fuzzy preference structures. Some properties of mentioned monotone generator triplet are investigated.
The measurement of information emitted by sources with uncertainty of random type is known and investigated in many works. This paper aims to contribute to analogous treatment of information connected with messages from other uncertain sources, influenced by not only random but also some other types of uncertainty, namely with imprecision and vagueness. The main sections are devoted to the characterization and quantitative representation of such uncertainties and measures of information produced...
