{"product_id":"9781447156758","title":"Advanced Information and Knowledge Processing: Theory and Algorithms","description":"\u003ch1\u003eAdvanced Information and Knowledge Processing: Theory and Algorithms\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eKarny, Miroslav\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis work summarizes the theoretical and algorithmic basis of optimized pr- abilistic advising. It developed from a series of targeted research projects s- ported both by the European Commission and Czech grant bodies. The source text has served as a common basis of communication for the research team. When accumulating and re?ning the material we found that the text could also serve as • a grand example of the strength of dynamic Bayesian decision making, • a practical demonstration that computational aspects do matter, • a reference to ready particular solutions in learning and optimization of decision-making strategies, • a source of open and challenging problems for postgraduate students, young as well as experienced researchers, • a departure point for a further systematic development of advanced op- mized advisory systems, for instance, in multiple participant setting. These observations have inspired us to prepare this book. Prague, Czech Republic Miroslav K´ arn´ y October 2004 Josef B¨ ohm Tatiana V.
