Fault tree uncertainty quantification using probabilities and belief structures on basic and non-basic events

Annual Conference of the North American Fuzzy Information Processing Society - NAFIPS, 2005, 65–68.

By: K. Sentz* & A. Wilson*

Contributors: K. Sentz* & A. Wilson*

TL;DR: This paper considers information at both basic and non-basic events, and describes uncertainties about this information in terms of both probability and Dempster-Shafer evidence theory for the AND gate. (via Semantic Scholar)
