✦ Synopsis

Alternative approaches to the widely known pignistic transformation of belief functions are presented and analyzed. Pignistic, cautious, proportional, and disjunctive probabilistic transformations are examined from the point of view of their interpretation, of decision making and ~from the point of view! of their commutation with rules ~operators! for belief function combination. A relation to the plausibility probabilistic transformation is added.

We consider what tagging models are most appropriate as front ends for probabilistic context-free grammar parsers. In particular, we ask if using a "multiple tagger", a tagger that returns more than one tag, improves parsing performance. Our conclusion is somewhat surprising: single-tag Markov-mode
