Abstract

Significant amount of accidents are related to a human factor in Socio-Cyber-Technical-Physical Systems that are used in cybersecurity or healthcare. Assessment of this factor is a part of a risk management process and it relies on an estimate of some characteristic of the behavior in interest. The data for this estimation procedure may be obtained via self–reports and interviews, that often give incomplete and imprecise information. In this paper the use of the continuous probabilistic graphical models is proposed to capture the uncertainty that accompanies the heterogeneous and incomplete behavior data and their continuity. The vine mediated Bayesian Belief network is proposed for the problem, that relies on lesser number of parameters. The data on public posting in the online social media is used to compare this approach with hybrid Bayesian Belief network that is approximated with mixtures of truncated exponentials.

The research was carried out in the framework of the project on state assignment SPC RAS No FFZF-2022-0003 and RFBR No 20-07-00839.
