Intelligent Decision Support Systems

This book presents a collection of essays written by leading researchers to honor Roman Słowiński’s major scholarly interests and contributions. He is well-known for conducting extensive research on methodologies and techniques for intelligent decision support, where he combines operational research and artificial intelligence. The book reconstructs his main contributions, presents cutting-edge research and provides an outlook on the most promising and advanced domains of computer science and multiple criteria decision aiding. The respective chapters cover a wide range of related research areas, including decision sciences, ordinal data mining, preference learning and multiple criteria decision aiding, modeling of uncertainty and imprecision in decision problems, rough set theory, fuzzy set theory, multi-objective optimization, project scheduling and decision support applications. As such, the book will appeal to researchers and scholars in related fields.

Multiple Criteria Decision Making

Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) is all about making choices in the presence of multiple conflicting criteria. MCDM has become one of the most important and fastest growing subfields of Operations Research/Management Science. As modern MCDM started to emerge about 50 years ago, it is now a good time to take stock of developments. This book aims to present an informal, nontechnical history of MCDM, supplemented with many pictures. It covers the major developments in MCDM, from early history until now. It also covers fascinating discoveries by Nobel Laureates and other prominent scholars.The book begins with the early history of MCDM, which covers the roots of MCDM through the 1960s. It proceeds to give a decade-by-decade account of major developments in the field starting from the 1970s until now. Written in a simple and accessible manner, this book will be of interest to students, academics, and professionals in the field of decision sciences.

Preferences and Decisions

Decision making is an omnipresent, most crucial activity of the human being, and also of virtually all artificial broadly perceived “intelligent” systems that try to mimic human behavior, reasoning and choice processes. It is quite obvious that such a relevance of decision making had triggered vast research effort on its very essence, and attempts to develop tools and techniques which would make it possible to somehow mimic human decision making related acts, even to automate decision making processes that had been so far reserved for the human beings. The roots of those attempts at a scientific analysis can be traced to the ancient times but – clearly – they have gained momentum in ...

Preferences and Decisions under Incomplete Knowledge

  • Publisher: Physica

Nowadays, decision problems are pervaded with incomplete knowledge, i.e., imprecision and/or uncertain information, both in the problem description and in the preferential information. In this volume leading scientists in the field address various theoretical and practical aspects related to the handling of this incompleteness. The problems discussed are taken from multi-objective linear programming, rationality considerations in preference modelling, non-probabilistic utility theory, data fusion, group decision making and multicriteria decision aid. The book is oriented towards researchers, graduate and postgraduate students in decision analysis, fuzzy sets and fuzzy logic, and operations research/management science.
