Belief functions induced by multimodal probability density functions, an application to the search and rescue problem

P.-E. Doré, A. Martin, I. Abi-Zeid, A.-L. Jousselme, P. Maupin (2011)

RAIRO - Operations Research

In this paper, we propose a new method to generate a continuous belief functions from a multimodal probability distribution function defined over a continuous domain. We generalize Smets' approach in the sense that focal elements of the resulting continuous belief function can be disjoint sets of the extended real space of dimension n. We then derive the continuous belief function from multimodal probability density functions using the least commitment principle. We illustrate the approach on two...

Change-Point problems: approaches and applications.

Adrian F. M. Smith (1980)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Problems of making inferences about abrupt changes in the mechanism underlying a sequence of observations are considered in both retrospective and on-line contexts. Among the topics considered are the Lindisfarne scribes problem; switching straight lines; manoeuvering targets, and shifts of level or slope in linear time series models. Summary analyses of data obtained in studies of schizophrenic and kidney transplant patients are presented.

Comment on "On some statistical paradoxes and non-conglomerability" by Bruce Hill.

Isaac Levi (1981)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Those who follow Harold Jeffreys in using improper priors together with likelihoods to determine posteriors have thought of the improper measures as probability measures of a deviant sort. This is a mistake. Probability measures are finite measures. Improper distributions generate σ-finite measures. (...)

Decisión equivariante óptima en poblaciones con parámetro de localización y escala.

Ramón Ardanuy Albajar, M.ª del Mar Soldevilla Moreno (1981)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

En este trabajo se trata el problema de decisión equivariante en poblaciones dependientes de un parámetro bidimensional del tipo de localización y escala, obteniendo la información a partir de un estadístico ordenado. Tras caracterizar las funciones de decisión equivariantes y encontrar la expresión para la función de decisión óptima, se ven condiciones, sobre la función de pérdida y distribución muestral, que sean suficientes para garantizar que la función de decisión equivariante óptima sea minimax...

Estimating the fuzzy inequality associated with a fuzzy random variable in random samplings from finite populations

Hortensia López-García, María Angeles Gil, Norberto Corral, María Teresa López (1998)

Kybernetika

In a recent paper we have introduced the fuzzy hyperbolic inequality index, to quantify the inequality associated with a fuzzy random variable in a finite population. In previous papers, we have also proven that the classical hyperbolic inequality index associated with real-valued random variables in finite populations can be unbiasedly estimated in random samplings. The aim of this paper is to analyze the problem of estimating the population fuzzy hyperbolic index associated with a fuzzy random...

Fuzzy data in statistics

Milan Mareš (2007)

Kybernetika

The development of effective methods of data processing belongs to important challenges of modern applied mathematics and theoretical information science. If the natural uncertainty of the data means their vagueness, then the theory of fuzzy quantities offers relatively strong tools for their treatment. These tools differ from the statistical methods and this difference is not only justifiable but also admissible. This relatively brief paper aims to summarize the main fuzzy approaches to vague data...
