It assumes that the risk process can be > described as a fault tree. This is viewed as a belief network, for > which prior distributions on primary event probabilities are elicited > by means of a pairwise comparison approach. A Bayesian updating > procedure, following observation of some or all of the events in the > fault tree, is described. The application is illustrated through the > motivating example of risk assessment of spacecraft explosion during > controlled re-entry. > > RSVP: Please email the Secretary if attending in order to assist with > planning lunch > > Please check the website > www.rssni.co.uk > > Best > > Gilbert > > > -- > > > > _____________________________ > > Prof. Gilbert MacKenzie, > Formerly of > Centre of Biostatistics, > Dept. of Mathematics & Statistics, > University of Limerick, > Limerick > Ireland > > Hon.
