Decision Theory and Decision Analysis: Trends and Challenges

Decision Theory and Decision Analysis: Trends and Challenges is divided into three parts. The first part, overviews , provides state-of-the-art surveys of various aspects of decision analysis and utility theory. The second part, theory and foundations , includes theoretical contributions on decision-making under uncertainty, partial beliefs and preferences. The third section, applications , reflects the real possibilities of recent theoretical developments such as non-expected utility theories, multicriteria decision techniques, and how these improve our understanding of other areas including artificial intelligence, economics, and environmental studies.
