Integrity constraint belief merging aims at producing from several knowledge bases, that may be mutually inconsistent, a synthetic knowledge base satisfying a given integrity const...
In this paper, we study the notion of marginal independence between two sets of variables when uncertainty is expressed by belief functions as understood in the context of the tra...

We present a framework for investigating merging operators for belief sets. This framework is a generalisation of our earlier work concerning consistency-based belief revision and...
In this paper we propose a new approach to probabilistic inference on belief networks, global conditioning, which is a simple generalization of Pearl's (1986b) method of loop...

In this paper we study a new probability associated with any given belief function b, i.e. the orthogonal projection π[b] of b onto the probability simplex P. We provide an interp...
