Title
Reasoning under uncertainty with subjective logic
Abstract
Many situations require decisions to be made with limited knowledge. Subjective logic is a formalism for reasoning and decision making under uncertainty. Subjective logic can be used for intelligence analysis and for trust reasoning. Subjective logic is also widely used for representing uncertainty in ML. This seminar presents the theory of subjective logic and applications of reasoning under uncertainty.
