Abstract

Possibilistic conditional independence is investigated: we propose a definition of this notion similar to the one used in probability theory. The links between independence and no-interaetivity are investigated, and properties of these relations are given. The influence of the conjunction used to define a conditional measure of possibility is also highlighted : we examine three types of conjunctions : Lukasiewiez - like T-norms, product-like T-norms and the minimum operator.
