Modeling Decisions : Information Fusion and Aggregation Operators - Narukawa, Yasuo

. .

Résumé :
This book covers the underlying science and application issues related to aggregation operators, focusing on tools used in practical applications that involve numerical information. Starting with detailed introductions to information fusion and integration, measurement and probability theory, fuzzy sets, and functional equations, the authors then cover the following topics in detail: synthesis of judgments, fuzzy measures, weighted means and fuzzy integrals, indices and evaluation methods, model selection, and parameter extraction. The methods are illustrated with representative examples throughout, and there are extensive bibliographies and reading suggestions....

Biographie:
Vicen? Torra is Professor of Artificial Intelligence in the Dept. of Computing Science at Ume? University. He has a PhD in Computer Science / AI from Polytechnical University of Catalonia in 1994. He has held positions at Universitat Rovira i Virgili (Catalonia, Spain), Artificial Intelligence Research Institute - Spanish Council for Scientific Research (IIIA-CSIC), Sk?vde University (2014-2020, Professorship, Sweden), and Maynooth University (2018-2020, Professorship, Ireland). Additionally, he has undertaken visiting positions at Tsukuba University in Japan, and maintains a longstanding and fruitful collaboration with Japanese researchers. Torra's areas of expertise center on artificial intelligence, with a particular focus on data privacy and approximate reasoning (reasoning under uncertainty, fuzzy sets and systems). He is IEEE and EurAI fellow, and ISI elected member. He has written several books including Fundamentals of artificial intelligence (in Catalan, Open University Press, 2007), Modeling Decisions (with Y. Narukawa, Springer, 2007), Scala: from a functional programming perspective (Springer, 2016), Guide to data privacy (Springer, 2022)....
