*Call for papers*
Special Session on
"THEORETICAL AND APPLIED ASPECTS OF IMPRECISE PROBABILITIES"
to be held at the
10th International Conference on Soft Methods in Probability and
Statistics (SMPS 2022)
http://smps2022.uva.es
Valladolid (Spain), September 14-16, 2022
*Session topic and goal*
This session is devoted to Imprecise Probability Theory. This theory
involves all the mathematical models that can be used as more flexible
tools than usual Probability Theory when the available information is
scarce, vague or incomplete. It includes lower previsions, n-monotone
capacities, belief functions, possibility measures, or non-additive
measures, among others. This special session aims to include papers
related to Imprecise Probabilities that either present a significant
advance in the foundations or show potential applications in real
problems. In addition, papers where the connection between imprecise
probability theory and other fields such as fuzzy sets or game theory is
emphasised are also welcome.
Theoretical topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
* (coherent) uncertainty models
* non-additive set functions
* choice functions
* sets of desirable gambles
* qualitative reasoning about uncertainty
* limit laws for imprecise probabilities
* philosophical foundations
* elicitation and inference
* robust statistics
* decision making
* algorithmic issues
Applications include (but are not limited to):
* data mining
* classification and machine learning
* risk and reliability analysis
* finance
* life sciences
* system control and design
*Dates*
Paper submission deadline: April 8, 2022
Author notification: April 30, 2022
Camera-ready copy due: May 15, 2022
Conference: September 14-16, 2022
Since the Easychair submission site
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=smps2022> will not offer one
track for this special session, please send us a message with the
information on your paper if you want it to be included in this session.
