using such models, statistics in imprecise probability theory, the use and applications of imprecise probabilities in artificial intelligence, and evaluating imprecise forecasts. Leading experts in these topics will lecture on the main concepts and techniques
associated with their area of expertise, in a friendly environment favouring interaction between participants.</span><span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
