Over the last 50 years in different areas such as decision theory, information processing, and data mining, the interest to extend probability theory and statistics has grown. The common feature of those attempts is to widen frameworks for representing different kinds of uncertainty: randomness, imprecision, vagueness, and ignorance. The scope is to develop more flexible methods to analyze data and extract knowledge from them. The extension of classical methods consists in “softening” them by means of new approaches involving fuzzy set theory, possibility theory, rough sets, or having their origin in probability theory itself, like imprecise probabilities, belief functions, and fuzzy random variables. Data science aims at developing automated methods to analyze massive amounts of data and extract knowledge from them. In the recent years the production of data is dramatically increasing. Every day a huge amount of data coming from everywhere is collected: mobile sensors, sophisticated instruments, transactions, Web logs, and so forth. This trend is expected to accelerate in the near future. Data science employs various programming techniques and methods of data wrangling, data visualization, machine learning, and probability and statistics. The soft methods proposed in this volume represent a suit of tools in these fields that can also be useful for data science. The volume contains 65 selected contributions devoted to the foundation of uncertainty theories such as probability, imprecise probability, possibility theory, soft methods for probability and statistics. Some of them are focused on robustness, non-precise data, dependence models with fuzzy sets, clustering, mathematical models for decision theory and finance.

The qualitative characteristics of the combining evidence with the help of Dempster’s rule with discounting is studied in this paper in the framework of Dempster-Shafer theory. The discount coefficient (discounting rate) characterizes the reliability of information source. The conflict between evidence and change of ignorance after applying combining rule are considered in this paper as ...

In the paper we continue investigations started in the paper presented at ISIPTA’15, where the notions of lower and upper generalized credal sets has been introduced. Generalized credal sets are models of imprecise probabilities, where it is possible to describe contradiction in information, when the avoiding sure loss condition is not satisfied. The paper contains ...

Численным методам решения систем газодинамических уравнений посвящена обширная литература. Ранее было разработано и успешно апробировано специальное семейство симметричных по пространству консервативных разностных методов, основанных на предварительной кинетической, точнее, квазигазодинамической (КГД), регуляризации этих уравнений. Актуальной задачей является построение численных методов, которые обладают не только свойством консервативности по массе, импульсу и полной энергии, но и удовлетворяют условиям энтропийной ...

Ambivalence/hesitancy recognition in unconstrained videos is a challenging problem due to the subtle, multimodal, and context-dependent nature of this behavioral state. In this paper, a multimodal approach for video-level ambivalence/hesitancy recognition is presented for the 10th ABAW Competition. The proposed approach integrates four complementary modalities: scene, face, audio, and text. Scene dynamics are captured with ...

U-UV codes, based on the Plotkin (U, U + V) construction, provide a unified framework that includes polar and Reed–Muller codes and enables flexible design through the choice of component codes. While modern capacity-approaching codes achieve excellent performance at large block lengths, their efficiency at short and moderate lengths remains limited, especially under low-latency constraints. ...

The effects of dislocations on the mobility of gas nanobubbles pinned to them are considered as novel unex- plored mechanisms of accelerated fission gas release and investigated using classical molecular dynamics of helium bubbles in FCC aluminum. Non-equilibrium methods are developed to calculate the mobility of a pinned bubble both along and across the dislocation ...

We report a high-performance implementation of the resolution-of-the-identity Hartree–Fock method that fully exploits the permutational symmetry of three-center electron repulsion integrals (ERI). The present implementation adopts a hybrid MPI+OpenMP parallelization strategy. Two different algorithmic approaches (with and without the pre-transformation of ERIs) are compared. A custom data layout introduced previously is employed. Designed to efficiently ...

We develop a new three-party quantum secret-sharing (QSS) protocol based on a three-qubit W state. This protocol encodes the secret-sequence bits using X gates and employs randomly selected Hadamard operations and measurement bases to generate information and security-test rounds. We evaluate the efficiency of the proposed protocol and analyze its security against an internal adversary ...

The stochastic frontier model (SFM) is widely employed in the analysis of productivity and efficiency, yet strict parametric forms, such as the Cobb-Douglas and Translog functions, are often assumed for modeling production, leading to potential misspecification issues. While semi- and nonparametric SFMs offer greater flexibility, they face challenges in imposing monotonicity and concavity to maintain ...

Financial markets of emerging economies are vulnerable to extreme and cascading information spillovers, surges, sudden stops and reversals. With this in mind, we develop a new online early warning system (EWS) to detect what is referred to as ‘concept drift’ in machine learning, as a ‘regime shift’ in economics and as a ‘change-point’ in statistics. ...

In process mining, DFG (Directly-Follows Graph) models are popular due to their simplicity and clarity. However, if a process is acyclic but contains concurrent events, standard algorithms for discovering DFG models can generate "fake" cycles that do not actually exist in the event log. These cycles hinder the analysis of information processes, significantly reducing the ...

Object-centric process mining has emerged as a powerful paradigm for analyzing event data involving multiple interacting business objects. Existing discovery techniques often rely on object-centric Petri nets with fixed arc multiplicities, limiting their ability to represent parametric resource consumption and production patterns and to capture quantitative dependencies between interacting object types. In this paper, we ...

Recent advances in large language model (LLM) agents have shown promise for autonomous decision-making in recommender systems. However, existing approaches suffer from two fundamental limitations: flat agent memories that conflate different information modalities and prohibitive computational costs that prevent scaling beyond a few hundred users. We propose Hybrid-GraphRAG, a recommender system that integrates hierarchical agent ...

The article examines the significant transformation of the concept of information and its impact on modern security technologies. Until the middle of the 20th century, the concept of information was considered as a philosophical category related to the transfer of knowledge and meaning.
