Modeling decisions for artificial intelligence : 4th international conference, MDAI 2007, Kitakyushu, Japan, August 16-18, 2007 ; proceedings

Decision modeling is a key area in the developing field of AI, and this timely work connects researchers and professionals with the very latest research. It constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Modeling Decisions for Artificial Intelligence, held in Kitakyushu, Japan, in August 2007. There are no less than 42 revised full papers here, and they are presented together with 4 invited lectures. All have been thoroughly reviewed and were selected from 193 submissions and are devoted to theory and tools for modeling decisions, as well as applications that encompass decision making processes and information fusion techniques. The papers are organized in topical sections on decision making, non additive measures and concept lattices, clustering and rough sets, soft computing, and applications. The publication comes complete with online files and updates.
