Visions of a generalized probability theory

2018-10-18 · Cuzzolin Fabio

In this Book we argue that the fruitful interaction of computer vision and belief calculus is capable of stimulating significant advances in both fields. From a methodological point of view, novel theoretical results concerning the geometric and algebraic properties of belief functions as mathematical objects are illustrated and discussed in Part II, with a focus on both a perspective 'geometric approach' to uncertainty and an algebraic solution to the issue of conflicting evidence. In Part III we show how these theoretical developments arise from important computer vision problems (such as articulated object tracking, data association and object pose estimation) to which, in turn, the evidential formalism is able to provide interesting new solutions. Finally, some initial steps towards a generalization of the notion of total probability to belief functions are taken, in the perspective of endowing the theory of evidence with a complete battery of estimation and inference tools to the benefit of all scientists and practitioners.

Matching with Generalized Sequential Reserves

2023-10-04 · Orhan Aygün, Bertan Turhan

This paper introduces a general theory of sequential reserves by formulating a parameterized family of generalized sequential (GS) choice rules for institutions consisting of multiple divisions (or reserve categories). W…

Generalized Euler-Lotka equation for correlated cell divisions

2021-01-07 · Simone Pigolotti

Cell division times in microbial populations display significant fluctuations, that impact the population growth rate in a non-trivial way. If fluctuations are uncorrelated among different cells, the population growth ra…

A generalized evidence distance

2013-11-16 · Hongming Mo, Xiaoyan Su, Yong Hu, Yong Deng

Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence (D-S theory) is widely used in uncertain information process. The basic probability assignment(BPA) is a key element in D-S theory. How to measure the distance between two BPAs is an op…

Cramér-Rao Lower Bounds Arising from Generalized Csiszár Divergences

2020-01-14 · M. Ashok Kumar, Kumar Vijay Mishra

We study the geometry of probability distributions with respect to a generalized family of Csisz\'ar $f$-divergences. A member of this family is the relative $\alpha$-entropy which is also a R\'enyi analog of relative en…

Option Pricing with Greed and Fear Factor: The Rational Finance Approach

2017-09-24 · Svetlozar Rachev, Frank J. Fabozzi, Boryana Racheva-Iotova, Abootaleb Shirvani

We explain the main concepts of Prospect Theory and Cumulative Prospect Theory within the framework of rational dynamic asset pricing theory. We derive option pricing formulas when asset returns are altered with a genera…
