Abstract

Valuation-Based System (VBS for short) can represent knowledge indifferent domains including probability theory, Dempster-Shafertheory and possibility theory. More recent studies show that theframework of VBS is also appropriate for representing and solvingBayesian decision problems and optimization problems. In this paperafter introducing the valuation based system framework, we presentMarkov-like properties of VBS and a method for resolving queries toVBS.
