Decision Making Under Great Uncertainty
TL;DR: In this article, a systematic account of decision making under greater uncertainty than what traditional, mathematically oriented decision theory can cope with is presented, and four components of decision theory are discussed.

Reversing the Levi identity
TL;DR: The AGM (Alchourrón-GÄrdenfors-Makinson) model of belief change is extended to cover changes on sets of beliefs that are not closed under logical consequence (belief bases).

Belief contraction without recovery
TL;DR: This work replaces recovery with the seemingly much weaker postulate of core-retainment, which ensures that if x is excluded from K when p is contracted, then x plays some role for the fact that K implies p.

Principles of engineering safety : Risk and uncertainty reduction
Niklas Möller,Sven Ove Hansson +1 more
TL;DR: It emerges from this systematisation that important aspects of safety engineering methods can be better understood with the help of the distinction between risk and uncertainty.

Credibility limited revision
TL;DR: Five types of constructions are introduced for non-prioritized belief revision, i.e., belief revision in which the input sentence is not always accepted, and close interconnections are shown to hold between the different constructions.
