- Additional information
- This monograph consolidates the author’s work on the mathematics of belief calculus, including an original geometric approach and a novel algebraic analysis. Chapter 8 was later developed into an IEEE-TFS paper by Wong and Cuzzolin (IF 8.4). The work led to a larger Springer monograph, edited proceedings for BELIEF’18, Cuzzolin’s nomination to Area Chair of UAI and Board member of the SIPTA and BFAS societies, two UAI’15 IJCAI’16 tutorials, invited talks at Seoul, Harvard, Cambridge, BFF4-5 and the 2017 Summer School, and the recent €3M EU FET project ‘Epistemic AI’, which aims at embedding higher-order uncertainty in artificial intelligence.
