Beschreibung
Grey Information: Theory and Practical Applications is a crystallization of the authors' work over the last twenty-five years. The book covers the latest advances in grey information and systems research, providing a state-of-the-art overview of this important field.
Covering the theoretical foundation, fundamental methods and main topics in grey information and systems research, this book includes all the elementary concepts: basic principles, grey numbers and their operations, grey equations and matrices, operators of sequences and generations of grey sequences, grey incidence analysis, grey clusters and grey statistical evaluations, grey systems modeling, grey combined models, grey prediction, grey decisions, grey programming, grey input and output and grey controls, etc.
The book will be of interest to advanced students and researchers in a wide range of fields including information and systems sciences and management sciences, and to thoseworking in applied areas such as geo-science, engineering, agriculture, medicine, biosciences and others.
The Grey System theory requires only a limited amount of data to estimate the behavior of an uncertain system. It has been successfully applied to industrial and social systems as well as economy and traffic management. This book details the latest advances in grey information and systems research. Covering the theoretical foundation, fundamental methods and main topics in grey information and systems research, this book includes all the elementary concepts.
Provides a comprehensive and effective demonstration, centred on problem solving of fundamental concepts of grey systems theory through extensive use of real-life examples Covers all major areas of study of grey systems theory; after basic concepts are introduced, the reader is eased into specific example problems Direct and friendly writing style keeps readers from graduate level and researchers to field practitioners in mind at all times Offers an adaptable self-instructional format and a myriad of motivational scenarios to stimulate reader’s interest of learning and deepen understanding A complete list of references will keep the reader in pace with the most recent development in the field Examples of practical applications throughout, show the reader how each idea, concept and theorem have been applied to resolve a real-life problem

From the reviews:
"I am much interested and impressed by Dr. Sifeng Liu and Dr. Yi Lin’s recently published monograph on grey information, dealing with the theory and practical applications. … It is a comprehensive, all-in-one exposition, detailing not only with the theoretical foundation but also real-life applications. Because of this characteristic of quality and usefulness, Liu and Lin’s book possesses the value of the widest possible range of reference by the workers and practitioners from all concerns of natural and social sciences and technology."
