| Summary: |
"There are a growing number of researchers and analysts who find the probability-based approaches for assessing risk and uncertainties to be too narrow and limiting. Uncertainty in Risk Assessment provides a broad conceptual framework and describes various alternative approaches of uncertainty representation and characterization therein such as probability-bound analysis, imprecise probability and evidence theory.The authors, whose own research has been at the forefront of developments in the field, include a number of real-life applications which demonstrate the practical use of the various "Uncertainty in Risk Assessment addresses an important and current problem for which there are competing solutions"-- |
