An obvious solution to this problem is to filter with multiple kernels rather than with a single one, but the computing cost of such a solution can quickly become prohibitive (especially in real-time applications). Another alternative, the one studied in this paper, is to consider kernels modeled by imprecise probabilistic representations. Considering such representations makes the use of numerical tools coming from imprecise probability theory possible, such as the Choquet integral, and allows one to work with multiple kernels without multiplying too much the number of required computations. In this paper, we propose to use the well-known p-box representation to filter a digital signal. We show that the use p-boxes allows making more precise inferences than those obtained with possibility distributions and clouds. We then discuss the practical aspect of computing a filtered signal with pboxes, and finish by some experiments.","PeriodicalId":403191,"journal":{"name":"EUSFLAT Conf.","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125013033","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tselykh","doi":"10.2991/eusflat.2011.55","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2991/eusflat.2011.55","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract Risks and losses arising from system failure, unautho-rized activity, fraud and other operational errors are postulated to be one of the primary banking risks. Ex-pert-based scenario analysis aims at describing the fre-quency and severity of extreme operational losses. Ex-perts are not exact in predicting quantitative estimates for a distant future. The predicted scenarios are de-scribed by range estimates and qualitative storylines. This study introduces and applies the methodology for evaluation of the operational risk levels derived from the experts opinions collected from scenarios. The me-thodology is based on the use of fuzzy numbers to ex-press subjective probability of expert estimates. Keywords : operational risk, scenario analysis, fuzzy decision making, fuzzy number 1. Introduction In the light of the global financial crisis, both media, leading policy makers, economists and practitioners are questioning the appropriate levels of risk in the interna-tional financial system. Decision makers and banking practitioners are struggling to evaluate the risk attri-buted to the globalization of modern banking, the fast evolving information technology, new economic theo-ries, opaque financial instruments, and complex ma-thematical modeling. International banking industry had been trying to balance the existing risks in the financial systems for quite some time by regulating the ap-proaches to measure and manage risks. Although the latest financial crisis made us question some regulatory requirements, it had accentuated the necessity to eva-luate risks more holistically. The Bank for International Settlements, an interna-tional organization which fosters international monetary and financial cooperation and serves as a bank for cen-tral banks, had realized that developing banking prac-tices such as securitization, outsourcing, specialized processing operations and reliance on technology had introduced substantial risks which need to be reflected in credible capital assessments. As a result, Basel II Ac-cord that includes risks other than credit and market was proposed to be “a comprehensive framework for improving bank safety and soundness by more closely linking regulatory capital requirements with bank risk, by improving the ability of supervisors and financial markets to assess capital adequacy”, according to Fed-eral Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke in a May 2006 speech at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago’s 42nd Annual Conference on Bank Structure and Competition. All the largest banks in the world that carry internation-al component are mandated to become Basel certified. Resulting international risk management practice for financial institutions focuses on three main risk catego-ries: Market Risk, Credit Risk and Operational Risk (OR). OR is a relatively newly defined category of risk which includes many different types of risk, from the simple operations risks of transaction processing, unau-thorized activities and systems risks","PeriodicalId":403191,"journal":{"name":"EUSFLAT Conf.","volume":"2013 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-08-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127354628","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lastly, these individual scores are fused, modeling a corroboration process that takes into account information obsolescence and source relations.
