UIC invited International Academy for Systems and Cybernetic Sciences (IASCYS) academician, Prof Xu Zeshui, to lecture on probabilistic preference decisions on 21 April.
Prof Xu explained that probabilistic preference sets are an effective tool. These preference sets can comprehensively and meticulously express people's complex preferences for things. In recent years, they have received extensive attention and recognition from scholars at home and abroad.
In the lecture, Prof Xu introduced the practical application background, basic concepts and algorithms of decision theory based on probability preference sets, together with different expressions in various environments. He also introduced the current research progress and application prospects.
Prof Xu is an academician of the IASCYS, a distinguished professor of Changjiang Scholars, a winner of the National Outstanding Youth Science Fund and the China Youth Science and Technology Award. He is the doctoral supervisor of Sichuan University, Southeast University, Army University of Engineering, Nanjing University of Information Science and Technology.
Prof Xu has been engaged in research on decision analysis, information fusion, fuzzy mathematics, and optimisation algorithms for a long time and systematically created a complex information decision-making theory and method system. He has won the first Thomson Reuters China Citation Laureate Award and the Natural Science Award of the Ministry of Education (Two first prizes and two second prizes).
