We explore the relationship between possibility measures (supremum preserving normed measures) and p-boxes (pairs of cumulative distribution functions) on totally preordered spaces, extending earlier work in this direction by De Cooman and Aeyels, am...

When animals are transported and pass through customs, some of them may have dangerous infectious diseases. Typically, due to the cost of testing, not all animals are tested: a reasonable selection must be made. How to test effectively whilst avoidin...

Normal Form Backward Induction for Decision Trees with Coherent Lower Previsions (2012)
Journal Article

We examine normal form solutions of decision trees under typical choice functions induced by lower previsions. For large trees, finding such solutions is hard as very many strategies must be considered. In an earlier paper, we extended backward induc...

A pair of lower and upper cumulative distribution functions, also called probability box or p-box, is among the most popular models used in imprecise probability theory. They arise naturally in expert elicitation, for instance in cases where bounds a... Read More about Probability boxes on totally preordered spaces for multivariate modelling.
