Advanced Decision-Making Under Uncertainty
English | 2026 | ISBN: 981958695X | 268 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 41 MB
This book presents a collection of recent work that applies new and sophisticated computational techniques to manage uncertainty. This book expands the focus to more contemporary approaches, including fuzzy logic, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and multi-criteria decision-making, as well as other methods to solve problems. The chapters of this book describe various applications in critical areas of various disciplines such as the design and optimization of sustainable infrastructure, management of e-waste recycling networks, improvements in cyber security, and social media and toxic content classification. The shift from the opaque "black-box" models to transparent systems that explain the justification and the logic of the predictions is a key factor for model trust. This book is essential for those who seek computational intelligence for rational decision-making under uncertainty.

Addressing Bias in Information Retrieval
English | 2026 | ISBN: 3032241448 | 86 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 2.4 MB
Online search engines are an essential tool for seeking information, but results returned from these search engines can contain undesirable forms of bias with respect to protected attributes such as gender or race. These biases can exist due to the word embeddings used by search engines, the design of re-ranking algorithms, the development of retrieval algorithms, or a variety of other reasons. Classical information retrieval (IR) methods, such as query recommendation or query expansion, were designed to produce the most relevant results. However, if such biases are present in the system, then these methods will also deliver biased results.

The MATLAB source code provides readers with valuable tools for doing their own validations, and is available for download. The book provides practical training in the use of FEA for basic modelling and solving acoustic problems.

Accounting Measurement and Economic Value
English | 2026 | ISBN: 9819818842 | 315 Pages | PDF (True) | 11 MB
Accounting Measurement and Economic Value presents a rigorous foundation for economic value grounded in the representational theory of measurement and accounting practice. Bridging accounting, economics, and the philosophy of science, the book argues that empirical progress in economics is impeded by the lack of a clear and effective method for measuring economic value. It provides a formal measurement system based on observable accounting procedures - focusing on activity costs, prices, and quantities - that enables falsifiable economic hypotheses and replicable empirical testing.
