Randomness-oriented Multi-dimensional Cloud-based belief rule Base approach for complex system modeling

作者:

Highlights:

• Randomness and interpretability are major challenges which motivates this study.

• The cloud model is adopted for modeling the randomness from an interval perspective.

• The belief rule base (BRB) is adopted to provide interpretability.

• The new Cloud-BRB approach is proposed and applied in a practical risk assessment case.

• Case study results are more informative and show consistency with previous approaches.
