Characterizing factuality in normal form sequential decision making. (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Huntley, N., & Troffaes, M. (2009, July). Characterizing factuality in normal form sequential decision making. Paper presented at Sixth International Symposium on Imprecise Probability: Theories and Applications, Durham, England

We prove necessary and sufficient conditions on choice functions for factuality to hold in normal form sequential decision problems. We find that factuality is sufficient for backward induction to work. However, choice must be induced by a total preo...

This paper studies and bounds the effects of approximating loss functions and credal sets on choice functions, under very weak assumptions. In particular, the credal set is assumed to be neither convex nor closed. The main result is that the effects... Read More about Finite approximations to coherent choice.

Applying the imprecise Dirichlet model in cases with partial observations and dependencies in failure data (2009)
Journal Article

Imprecise probabilistic methods in reliability provide exciting opportunities for dealing with partial observations and incomplete knowledge on dependencies in failure data. In this paper, we explore the use of the imprecise Dirichlet model for deali...
