Abstract
Probability-possibility transformations are useful whenever probabilistic information must be dealt with in the possibility theory. In this paper, two-dimensional probability-possibility transformations of joint probability densities are considered, to build joint possibilities such that the marginals preserve the same information content as the marginals of the joint probability densities.
