With advancements of the digital technologies, it is easy, and almost instantaneous, to gather a large volume of information and\/or data pertaining to a problem that we want to solve. For instance, the world-wi- web is perhaps the primary source of information and\/or data that we often turn to when we face a decision making problem. However, the information and\/or data that we obtain from the real world often are complex, and comprise various kinds of noise. Besides, real-world information and\/or data often are incomplete and ambiguous, owing to uncertainties of the environments. All these make decision making a challenging task. To cope with the challenges of decision making, - searchers have designed and developed a variety of decision support systems to provide assistance in human decision making processes. The main aim of this book is to provide a small collection of techniques stemmed from artificial intelligence, as well as other complementary methodo- gies, that are useful for the design and development of intelligent decision support systems. Application examples of how these intelligent decision support systems can be utilized to help tackle a variety of real-world problems in different - mains, e. g. business, management, manufacturing, transportation and food ind- tries, and biomedicine, are also presented. A total of twenty chapters, which can be broadly divided into two parts, i. e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46487439999127,"sku":"9783642422393","price":31664.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9783642422393.jpg?v=1766334397","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/handbook-on-decision-making-vol-1-techniques-and-applications-9783642422393","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
