Possibility theory i: the measure- and integral-theoretic groundwork
TL;DR: It is shown thai, using a general definition of possibility measures, and a generalization of Sugeno's fuzzy integral-the semi-normed fuzzy integral, or possibility integral-.
Order norms on bounded partially ordered sets.
Gert de Cooman,Etienne Kerre +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extend the domains of affirmation and negation operators, and more important, of triangular normals and (semi)conorms from the unit interval to bounded partially ordered sets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supremum preserving upper probabilities
Gert de Cooman,Dirk Aeyels +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a possibility measure is a coherent upper probability if and only if it is normal, and it is proved that when either the upper or the lower cumulative distribution function of a random quantity is specified, possibility measures very naturally emerge as the corresponding natural extensions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Possibility theory iii: possibilistic independence
TL;DR: In this article, a measure-theoretic definition of possibilistic independence is proposed, which is consistent in this respect, and which is a formal counterpart of the definition of stochastic independence in probability theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
A behavioral model for linguistic uncertainty
Peter Walley,Gert de Cooman +1 more
TL;DR: The paper discusses the problem of modelling linguistic uncertainty, which is the uncertainty produced by statements in natural language, and concludes that, when the predicate is monotonic, possibility measures are appropriate models for linguistic uncertainty.
