Probability-possibility transformations, triangular fuzzy sets, and probabilistic inequalities

D Dubois, L Foulloy, G Mauris, H Prade - Reliable computing, 2004 - Springer
A possibility measure can encode a family of probability measures. This fact is the basis for a
transformation of a probability distribution into a possibility distribution that generalises the …

A systematic approach to the assessment of fuzzy association rules

D Dubois, E Hüllermeier, H Prade - Data Mining and Knowledge …, 2006 - Springer
In order to allow for the analysis of data sets including numerical attributes, several
generalizations of association rule mining based on fuzzy sets have been proposed in the …

Possibilistic classifiers for numerical data

M Bounhas, K Mellouli, H Prade, M Serrurier - Soft Computing, 2013 - Springer
Abstract Naive Bayesian Classifiers, which rely on independence hypotheses, together with
a normality assumption to estimate densities for numerical data, are known for their …

In defense of fuzzy association analysis

E Hullermeier, Y Yi - IEEE Transactions on Systems, Man, and …, 2007 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This short correspondence is a reply to a recently published paper by Verlinde et al.(2006)
in which the authors empirically compared fuzzy and nonfuzzy association analysis and, on …

An informational distance for estimating the faithfulness of a possibility distribution, viewed as a family of probability distributions, with respect to data

M Serrurier, H Prade - International journal of approximate reasoning, 2013 - Elsevier
An acknowledged interpretation of possibility distributions in quantitative possibility theory is
in terms of families of probabilities that are upper and lower bounded by the associated …

Fuzzy histograms and density estimation

K Loquin, O Strauss - Soft methods for integrated uncertainty modelling, 2006 - Springer
The probability density function is a fundamental concept in statistics. Specifying the density
function f of a random variable X on Ω gives a natural description of the distribution of X on …

Histogram density estimators based upon a fuzzy partition

K Loquin, O Strauss - Statistics & Probability Letters, 2008 - Elsevier
This paper presents a density estimator based upon a histogram computed on a fuzzy
partition. We prove the consistency of this estimator in the Mean Squared Error (MSE). We …

From bayesian classifiers to possibilistic classifiers for numerical data

M Bounhas, K Mellouli, H Prade, M Serrurier - … 4th International Conference …, 2010 - Springer
Naïve Bayesian classifiers are well-known for their simplicity and efficiency. They rely on
independence hypotheses, together with a normality assumption, which may be too …

Quasi-continuous histograms

O Strauss - Fuzzy sets and systems, 2009 - Elsevier
Histograms are very useful for summarizing statistical information associated with a set of
observed data. They are one of the most frequently used density estimators due to their ease …

Automatic background generation from a sequence of images based on robust mode estimation

D Sidibé, O Strauss, W Puech - Digital Photography V, 2009 - spiedigitallibrary.org
In this paper, we present a novel method for generating a background model from a
sequence of images with moving objects. Our approach is based on non-parametric …
