Uncertainty Modeling

This book commemorates the 65th birthday of Dr. Boris Kovalerchuk, and reflects many of the research areas covered by his work. It focuses on data processing under uncertainty, especially fuzzy data processing, when uncertainty comes from the imprecision of expert opinions. The book includes 17 authoritative contributions by leading experts.

Celebrates the 65th birthday of Dr. Boris Kovalerchuk Reflects many of Dr. Boris Kovalerchuk's areas of research Presents the latest uncertainty modeling research Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
