Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many real-world decision problems have multiple objectives. For example, when choosing a medical treatment plan, we want to maximize the efficacy of the treatment, but also minimize the side effects. These objectives typically conflict, e.g., we can often increase the efficacy of the treatment, but at the cost of more severe side effects. In this book, we outline how to deal with multiple objectives in decision-theoretic planning and reinforcement learning algorithms. To illustrate this, we employ the popular problem classes of multi-objective Markov decision processes (MOMDPs) and multi-objective coordination graphs (MO-CoGs). First, we discuss different use cases for multi-objective decision making, and why they often necessitate explicitly multi-objective algorithms. We advocate a utility-based approach to multi-objective decision making, i.e., that what constitutes an optimal solution to a multi-objective decision problem should be derived from the available information about user utility. We show how different assumptions about user utility and what types of policies are allowed lead to different solution concepts, which we outline in a taxonomy of multi-objective decision problems. Second, we show how to create new methods for multi-objective decision making using existing single-objective methods as a basis. Focusing on planning, we describe two ways to creating multi-objective algorithms: in the inner loop approach, the inner workings of a single-objective method are adapted to work with multi-objective solution concepts; in the outer loop approach, a wrapper is created around a single-objective method that solves the multi-objective problem as a series of single-objective problems. After discussing the creation of such methods for the planning setting, we discuss how these approaches apply to the learning setting. Next, we discuss three promising application domains for multi-objective decision making algorithms: energy, health, and infrastructure and transportation. Finally, we conclude by outlining important open problems and promising future directions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how a confused decision maker, who wishes to make a reasonable and responsible choice among alternatives, can systematically probe their thoughts and feelings in order to make the critically important trade-offs between incommensurable objectives.

Download or read book Interactive Decision Making written by Liping Fang and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 1993-10-07 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The graph model approach to conflict resolution is a flexible tool for use in strategic management within a competitive environment. Developed over an eight-year period by three of Canada's most distinguished systems design theorists, it is a mathematically rigorous, comprehensive approach to the study and resolution of real-world disputes. Interactive Decision Making is a careful, detailed, and systematic articulation of the theory and practice of the graph model approach. Based upon ideas from both graph theory and game theory, the theory of the graph model for conflicts offers several distinct advantages. It can handle any finite number of decision makers, each of whom controls any finite number of actions. The graph model can describe and distinguish reversible and irreversible moves (the effects of armed actions, for instance, cannot usually be undone). Most importantly, the graph model forms a solid framework upon which solution concepts for describing human behavior can be defined, assessed, and compared. This book is accompanied by a diskette, which is explained and illustrated in an appendix. In addition, the text provides a summary of how to apply the graph model to practical problems, as well as a plain language explanation to bring mathematical results and their implications into focus for the general reader. Each chapter concludes with a set of problems, which serve to clarify important points and ensure comprehension. This book is an invaluable new tool for researchers, consultants, teachers, and students who wish to study real-world conflicts. It is also destined to become an indispensable resource for professionals such as systems engineers, business administrators, environmental engineers, management scientists, operations research specialists, political scientists, labor-management negotiators, and military scientists.

This book was released on 2010-10-31 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The information age has enabled unprecedented levels of data to be collected and stored. At the same time, society and organizations have become increasingly complex. Consequently, decisions in many facets have become increasingly complex but have the potential to be better informed. Technologies for Supporting Reasoning Communities and Collaborative Decision Making: Cooperative Approaches includes chapters from diverse fields of enquiry including decision science, political science, argumentation, knowledge management, cognitive psychology and business intelligence. Each chapter illustrates a perspective on group reasoning that ultimately aims to lead to a greater understanding of reasoning communities and inform technological developments.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for a comprehensive book on probabilistic structural mechanics that brings together the many analytical and computational methods developed over the years and their applications in a wide spectrum of industries-from residential buildings to nuclear power plants, from bridges to pressure vessels, from steel structures to ceramic structures-became evident from the many discussions the editor had with practising engineers, researchers and professors. Because no single individual has the expertise to write a book with such a di.verse scope, a group of 39 authors from universities, research laboratories, and industries from six countries in three continents was invited to write 30 chapters covering the various aspects of probabilistic structural mechanics. The editor and the authors believe that this handbook will serve as a reference text to practicing engineers, teachers, students and researchers. It may also be used as a textbook for graduate-level courses in probabilistic structural mechanics. The editor wishes to thank the chapter authors for their contributions. This handbook would not have been a reality without their collaboration.
