Modeling uncertain and vague knowledge in possibility and evidence theories

Artificial Intelligence 2013-04-10 v1

Abstract

This paper advocates the usefulness of new theories of uncertainty for the purpose of modeling some facets of uncertain knowledge, especially vagueness, in AI. It can be viewed as a partial reply to Cheeseman's (among others) defense of probability.
