The theory of possibility described in this paper is related to the theory of fuzzy sets by defining the concept of a possibility distribution as a fuzzy restriction which acts as an elastic constraint on the values that may be assigned to a variable.
Fuzzy Sets and SystemsTowards fuzzy differential calculus part 1: Integration of fuzzy mappings
298 Citations1982Didier Dubois, Henri Prade
Using Zadeh's extension principle, the integral of fuzzy mappings over a crisp interval is defined, and provided a special analytical representation of the fuzzy mapping, the practical computation of such an integral is shown to be easy.
Acta PsychologicaModelling uncertainty and inductive inference: A survey of recent non-additive probability systems
143 Citations1988Didier Dubois, Henri Prade
Various approaches to inductive reasoning such as probability kinematics based on information measures, and the combination of uncertain or default information as studied in the field of Artificial Intelligence are discussed.

125 Citations1992Didier Dubois, Henri Prade
The problem of combining pieces of evidence issued from several sources of information, encountered in expert systems when several production rules conclude on the value of the same variable, but also in robotics when information coming from different sensors is to be aggregated.
Artificial IntelligenceDefault reasoning and possibility theory
107 Citations1988Didier Dubois, Henri Prade
An approach to default reasoning based on possibility theory is discussed, recently outlined by Ron Yager, to address the question of fusing a default value with a piece of incomplete but certain information which may only partially contradict the default value.
Pattern Recognition LettersA general approach to parameter evaluation in fuzzy digital pictures
94 Citations1987D. Dubois, Marie‐Christine Jaulent
The main idea is to consider a fuzzy subset of an images as the nested family of its level-cuts, interpret this family as a body of evidence in the sense of Shafer, and any intrinsic parameter can be calculated as a mathematical expectation based on a probability density function.

It is shown that both averaging operators and Dempster‐Shafer combining operators can be represented in this new framework useful for representing a class of operators used to combine various pieces of evidence.

It is shown how Shafer's concepts of plausibility and belief can be derived as a special case of the compatibility of a linguistically quantified statement with a data base consisting of an expert's fragmented opinion as to the location of a special element.

It is proposed that managing uncertainty is a control problem, a task for the control component of AI systems that decides what to do next, and the process of planning and executing sequences of actions that simultaneously satisfy domain goals and minimize uncertainty.

This paper more particularly considers the problem of producing plausible parameter estimates from incomplete collections of data and expert knowledge for extrapolating missing values and the evaluation of fuzzy queries pertaining to vaguely specified classes of objects.
