Seção: ArtigosTítulo: Concerns, challenges and directions of development for the issue of representing uncertainty / Roger Flage...[et al.]Notas: Sumario: In the analysis of the risk associated to rare events that may lead to catastrophic consequences with large uncertainty, it is questionable that the knowledge and information available for the analysis can be reflected properly by probabilities. Approaches other than purely probabilistic have been suggested, for example, using interval probabilities, possibilistic measures, or qualitative methods. In this article, we look into the problem and identify a number of issues that are foundational for its treatment. The foundational issues addressed reflect on the position that probability is perfect and take into open consideration the need for an extended framework for risk assessment that reflects the separation that practically exists between analyst and decisionmaker.Registros relacionados: En: Risk analysis : an international journal. - McLean, Virginia : Society for Risk Analysis, 1987-2015 = ISSN 0272-4332. - 07/07/2014 Volumen 34 Número 7 - julio 2014 Outras classificações: 7Direitos: In Copyright (InC)Referencias externas:
