Throughout the first 6 chapters we have exclusively used convex models of uncertainty. The primary practical motivation for avoiding the use of probabilistic models is the frequent lack of sufficient information to verify the choice of the probabilistic model. In chapter 7 we demonstrated that even small inaccuracies in the probability density can have far reaching repercussions on the reliability analysis.
