A random set is a generalisation of a random variable, i.e. a set-valued random variable. The random set theory allows a unification of other uncertainty descriptions such as interval variable, mass belief function in Dempster-Shafer theory…

We consider the problem of reconstructing a function given its values on a set of points with finite density. We prove that with probability one, the values of an almost periodic function on a random array of points (with finite density)…

It is often not possible to construct a probability density function that describes the data. This can happen if there is no analytic description, and the number of parameters is too large so that it is impossible to simulate and tabulate…

Usually, density functional models are considered approximations to density functional theory, However, there is no systematic connection between the two, and this can make us doubt about a linkage. This attitude can be further enforced by…
