Incorporating Ignorance within Game Theory: An Imprecise Probability Approach
(2023)Ignorance within non-cooperative games, reflected as a player’s uncertain prefer- ences towards a game’s outcome, is examined from a Bayesian point of view. This topic has had scarce treatment in the literature, which ... -

Irish Machine Vision and Image Processing Conference Proceedings 2018
(Irish Pattern Recognition and Classification Society, 2018)With IMVIP 2018 the series of Irish Machine Vision and Image Processing conferences reaches a landmark occasion: IMVIP 2018 is the 20th edition in a series of which the inaugural meeting was held at the Magee campus of ... -
Leadership for Business Excellence: The Gender Perspective
(SAI Global, 2008)The adoption of appropriate forms of leadership in response to modern organizational needs has become a major strand of management theory and underpins the pursuit of Total Quality/Business Excellence. With some notable ... -
Lower Confidence Limit for Reliability Based on Grouped Data with a Quantile Filling Algorithm
(2014)The purpose of this article is to derive a lower confidence limit for reliability given a grouped data set. This is done by using a quantile filling algorithm which generates pseudo failure data from grouped data. A general ... -
The magnitude of global marine species diversity
(2012)Background The question of how many marine species exist is important because it provides a metric for how much we do and do not know about life in the oceans. We have compiled the first register of the marine species ... -
Mixed membership of experts stochastic blockmodel
(2016)Social network analysis is the study of how links between a set of actors are formed. Typically, it is believed that links are formed in a structured manner, which may be due to, for example, political or material ... -
Model selection with application to gamma process and inverse Gaussian process
(2016)The gamma process and the inverse Gaussian process are widely used in condition-based maintenance. Both are suitable for modelling monotonically increasing degradation processes. Hence, one challenge for practitioners ... -
Model specification in hierarchical meta analysis

Modeling and adapting production environmental stress testing
(2009)This study describes the production sampling environmental stress test (PSEST) process and the offline analysis conducted. Some of the key characteristics and parameters of the test are outlined. The analytical process ... -
Negotiating Work/Life Balance : the Experience of Fathers and Mothers in Ireland
(UCL (Belgium), 2007)Working arrangements are still not sufficiently flexible to enable parents to manage to fulfil their roles as workers and as carers and there remains a dearth of flexible working arrangements and work-life balance policies ... -
Nonparametric analysis of the order-statistic model in software reliability
(IEEE, 2007)In the literature on statistical inference in software reliability, the assumptions of parametric models and random sampling of bugs have been pervasive. We argue that both assumptions are problematic, the first because ... -
Nonparametric Predictive Utility Inference
(2012)We consider the natural combination of two strands of recent statistical research, i.e., that of decision making with uncertain utility and that of Nonparametric Predictive Inference (NPI). In doing so we present the idea ... -
Parameter estimation for a model with both imperfect test and repair
(IEEE, 2007)We describe estimation of the parameters of a manufacturing test and repair model using data available from that test. The model allows imperfect testing and imperfect repair. The principal problem that we address is ... -
Predicting the number of known and unknown species in European seas using rates of description
(2011)Aim? In this paper, we compare species description rates to predict the numbers of undescribed species. These data are used to discuss the merits of various attempts to estimate species richness in the oceans. Location? ... -
Predicting total global species richness using rates of species description and estimates of taxonomic effort
(2012)We found that trends in the rate of description of 580,000 marine and terrestrial species, in the taxonomically authoritative World Register of Marine Species and Catalogue of Life databases, were similar until the 1950s. ... -
A probability model of system downtime with implications for optimal warranty design
(2009)Traditional approaches to modeling the availability of a system often do not formally take into account uncertainty over the parameter values of the model. Such models are then frequently criticised because the ... -
Progress and perspectives in the discovery of polychaete worms (Annelida) of the world
(2019)Despite the availability of well-documented data, a comprehensive review of the discovery progress of polychaete worms (Annelida) has never been done. In the present study, we reviewed available data in the World Register ...
