On the concept of possibility-probability consistency (Q1822400)

Both probability and possibility may be seen as information about an experiment. It is conceivable to have at some time these two forms of information about the same experiment and then the question of the relation between them arises at once. In this paper some aspects of the concept of possibility-probability consistency are studied. The consistency is considered as a fuzzy property relative to the coherence between possibilistic and probabilistic information. We analyze several measures of the degree of consistency and introduce an axiomatic to characterize them.
