ProbabilityBoundsAnalysis.jl
Probability bounds analysis in Julia, a package for performing arithmetic between uncertain numbers. ProbabilityBoundsAnalysis.jl computes guaranteed bounds on functions of random variables, given only partial information about their marginals and dependence. Considered to be a form of rigorous computing with random variables.
Supported uncertain numbers:
- scalars
- probability distributions
- intervals
- probability boxes (p-boxes)
For more information and use, please see the docs
