This theory involves all the mathematical models that can be used as more flexible tools than usual Probability Theory when the available information is scarce, vague or incomplete. It includes lower previsions, n-monotone capacities, belief functions, possibility measures, or non-additive measures, among others. This special session aims to include papers related to Imprecise Probabilities that either present a significant advance in the foundations or show potential applications in real problems. In addition, papers where the connection between imprecise probability theory and other fields such as fuzzy sets or game theory is emphasized are also welcome. Theoretical topics of interest include (but are not limited to): • (coherent) uncertainty models • non-additive set functions • choice functions • sets of desirable gambles • qualitative reasoning about uncertainty • limit laws for imprecise probabilities • philosophical foundations • elicitation and inference • robust statistics • decision making • algorithmic issues Applications include (but are not limited to): • data mining • classification and machine learning • risk and reliability analysis • finance • life sciences • system control and design Dates Paper submission deadline: February 29, 2024 Author notification: April 21, 2024 Conference: September 4-6, 2024 Submissions Please select the Invited Session “Theoretical and applied aspects of imprecise probabilities” when submitting your paper in the conference management tool https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.conftool.net%2Fsmps2024%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cuai%40engr.orst.edu%7Cb6c6b2dc04804359fa4808dc24302ad0%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C638425036495429466%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=nyTEJjF8CaKkgSYDBJ0lZJqtZr3KfHmtUBlaJd%2Ba%2BxE%3D&reserved=0<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.conftool.net%2Fsmps2024%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cuai%40engr.orst.edu%7Cb6c6b2dc04804359fa4808dc24302ad0%7Cce6d05e13c5e4d6287a84c4a2713c113%7C0%7C0%7C638425036495585699%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=kjt%2BXryBo7RyxSYXkK45%2FVTpJR5FIAowdhAyEPmfliA%3D&reserved=0>.
