Random sets in decision-making
Within probability theory, random sets are simply a special class of random elements, namely set-valued random elements. In the context of Euclidean spaces, random sets are generalizations of random variables or random vectors. Unlike other generalizations, such as probability theory on Banach spaces, the theory of random sets does not seem to attract probabilists, let alone statisticians. Recently, besides stochastic geometry, image analysis and mathematical morphology, interest in random sets has appeared in engineering fields such as expert systems and data fusion. As such, it seems reasonable to focus more systematically on both the theory and applications of random sets. It is our hope that this workshop will trigger further research on random sets and their applications especially in developing models for statistical applications. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0879.00052].
