Abstract System safety, reliability and risk analysis are important tasks that are performed
throughout the system life-cycle to ensure the dependability of safety-critical systems …

A data-driven Bayesian network (BN) is used to investigate the effect of human factors on
maritime safety through maritime accident analysis. Its novelties consist of (1) manual …

The Bayesian network (BN) is a powerful model for probabilistic knowledge representation
and inference and is increasingly used in the field of reliability evaluation. This paper …

Ocean and marine environments face the adverse effects of climate change and
environmental pollution. Maritime transportation, one of the most severe marine pollution …

Risk analysis is regarded as one of the most critical research topics in maritime industry due
to the nature of work. Validation of risk analysis is a significant challenge for safety …

Safety analysis in gas process facilities is necessary to prevent unwanted events that may
cause catastrophic accidents. Accident scenario analysis with probability updating is the key …

In this paper, a bibliographical review over the last decade is presented on the application of
Bayesian networks to dependability, risk analysis and maintenance. It is shown an …

Bayesian methods are a powerful tool in many areas of science and engineering, especially
statistical physics, medical sciences, electrical engineering, and information sciences. They …

Bayesian updating is a powerful method to learn and calibrate models with data and
observations. Because of the difficulties involved in computing the high-dimensional …
