6 Probabilit and Uncertaint Frequentist aleator: Confident when based on much observation evidence Unconfident when based on little observation evidence E.g.: Probabilit of heads when flipping coin is ½ and confident Subjective epistemic: Confident when dnamics of situation are known Unconfident when dnamics of situation are unknown E.g. Probabilit of Oswald killed Kenned is ½ but unconfident 6

7 Domains, variables and opinions Binar domain = {, } Binar variable = Binomial opinion 3-ar domain Random variable Multinomial opinion Hperdomain R Hpervariable R Hpernomial opinion R

8 Domains and Hperdomains domain is a state space of distinct possibilities Powerset P = 2, set of subsets, including {, } Reduced powerset R = P \ {, } Hperdomain R = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 } C called Composite set C = { 4, 5, 6 } Cardinalities = 3 in this eample P = 2 R = 8 in this eample R = 2 2 = 6 in this eample

9 Binomial Opinion Binar domain Binar variable = Multinomial Opinion n-ar domain Random variable Hpernomial Opinion hperdomain R Hpervariable R R Domain Opinion representation PDF representation Beta PDF over Dirichlet PDF over Hper Dirichlet over 9

10 Binomial subjective opinions Belief mass and base rate on binar domains b = b is observer s belief in d = b is observer s disbelief in u = b is observer s uncertaint about a is the base rate of Binomial opinion ω = b, d, u, a base rate of Binar domain b + d + u =1 10

11 What are base rates? In probabilit and statistics, base rate refers to categor probabilit unconditioned on evidence, often referred to as prior probabilities. For eample, if it were the case that 1% of the public are "medical professionals" and 99% of the public are not "medical professionals, then the base rates in this case are 1% and 99%, respectivel. E.g. when picking a random person, the prior probabilit of being a medical professional is 1% 11

12 Barcentric representation of binomial opinions Ordered quadruple: ω = b, d, u, a b : belief d : disbelief u : uncertaint vacuit of evidence a : base rate Point defined b additivit: b + d + u =1 Projected probabilit: P verte disbelief = b + a u u verte uncertaint b ω u d P a verte belief Eample ω =0.4, 0.2, 0.4, 0.9, P =

13 Opinion tpes bsolute opinion: b =1. Equivalent to TRUE. Dogmatic opinion: u =0. Equivalent to probabilities. Vacuous opinion: u =1. Equivalent to UNDEFINED. General uncertain opinion: u 0. 13

18 Soliciting opinions from people People find it difficult to epress opinions as numerical values Qualitative verbal categories are intuitivel easier Opinions have 2-dimensional qualit Likelihood dimension Confidence dimension i.e. certaint Suitable categories depend on application / contet Eample shows 9 likelihood and 5 confidence levels 1 corresponds to TRUE 9 corresponds to FLSE Low confidence is most natural with medium likelihood 18

19 Mapping qualitative to opinion Categories mapped to corresponding field of triangle Mapping depends on base rate Non-eistent categories depending on base-rates 9E 8E 7E 6E 5E 4E 3E 2E 1E 9E 8E 7E 6E 5E 4E 3E 2E 1E 9D 8D 7D 6D 5D 4D 3D 2D 1D 9D 8D 7D 6D 5D 4D 3D 2D 1D 9C 8C 7C 6C 5C 4C 3C 2C 1C 9C 8C 7C 6C 5C 4C 3C 2C 1C 9B 8B 7B 6B 5B 4B 3B 2B 1B B 8B 7B 6B 5B 4B 3B 2B 1B base rate a = 1/3 base rate a = 2/3 19

20 Mapping categories to opinions Overla categor matri with opinion triangle Matri skewed as a function of base rate Not all categories map to opinions For a low base rate, it is impossible to describe an event as highl likel and uncertain, but possible to describe it as highl unlikel and uncertain. E.g. with regard to tuberculosis which has a low base rate, it would be irrational to sa that a patient is likel to be infected, with high uncertaint. However, it would be rational to sa that the patient is probabl not infected, with high uncertaint low confidence. 20

26 Non-informative prior weight: W Value normall set to W = 2. When W is equal to the frame cardinalit, then the prior Dirichlet PDF is a uniform. Normall required that the prior Beta is uniform, which dictates W = 2 Beta PDF is a binomial Dirichlet PDF Setting W > 2 would make Dirichlet PDF insensitive to new observations, which would be an inadequate model. 26

42 The Ellsberg Parado Traditional probabilit theor is unable to eplain tpical human decision-making behaviour. Probabilities do not epress degrees of vagueness and uncertaint. The Ellsberg parado involves vagueness. Probabilit theor can not eplain the results of the Ellsberg eperiment. Subjective opinions epress degrees of vagueness and uncertaint Subjective opinions eplain the results of the Ellsberg as rational. Parado solved. 42
