TLDR
The computation on a general Bayesian network with convex sets of conditional distributions is formalized as a global optimization problem and it is shown that such a problem can be reduced to a combinatorial problem, suitable to exact algorithmic solutions.

Credal networks

TL;DR: Credal networks as mentioned in this paper is a compact representation for a set of probability distributions, and it is closely related to very popular statistical models such as Markov chains, Bayesian networks, Markov random fields, etc.

Lifted first-order probabilistic inference

TL;DR: This paper presents the first exact inference algorithm that operates directly on a first- order level, and that can be applied to any first-order model (specified in a language that generalizes undirected graphical models).

Relative reducts in consistent and inconsistent decision tables of the Pawlak rough set model

TL;DR: This paper investigates three different classification properties, and suggests three distinct definitions accordingly, based on the common structure of the specific definitions of relative reducts and discernibility matrices.

Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems: Networks of Plausible Inference

TL;DR: Probabilistic Reasoning in Intelligent Systems as mentioned in this paper is a complete and accessible account of the theoretical foundations and computational methods that underlie plausible reasoning under uncertainty, and provides a coherent explication of probability as a language for reasoning with partial belief.

Measures of uncertainty in expert systems

TL;DR: Each of the four measures seems to be useful in special kinds of problems, but only lower and upper previsions appear to be sufficiently general to model the most common types of uncertainty.
