The main emphasis is on situations when it is difficult to decrease uncertainty. For example, it is very difficult to accurately predict human economic behavior, so in economics, it is very important to take this uncertainty into account when making decisions. Other areas where it is difficult to decrease uncertainty are geosciences and teaching. The book analyzes the general problem of decision making and shows how its results can be applied to economics, geosciences, and teaching. Since all these applications involve computing, the book also shows how these results can be applied to computing, including deep learning and quantum computing. The book is recommended to researchers, practitioners, and students who want to learn more about decision making under uncertaintyand who want to work on remaining challenges. 001461670 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001461670 650_0 $$aDecision making$$xResearch. 001461670 650_0 $$aUncertainty$$xDecision making$$xResearch. 001461670 650_0 $$aUncertainty$$xDecision making$$xFinance$$xResearch. 001461670 650_0 $$aFinance. 001461670 650_0 $$aEarth sciences. 001461670 650_0 $$aGeology. 001461670 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001461670 7001_ $$aKreinovich, Vladik,$$eauthor. 001461670 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBokati, Laxman$$tDecision Making under Uncertainty, with a Special Emphasis on Geosciences and Education$$dCham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2023$$z9783031260858 001461670 830_0 $$aStudies in systems, decision and control ;$$vv. 218.$$x2198-4190 001461670 852__ $$bebk 001461670 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-26086-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001461670 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1461670$$pGLOBAL_SET 001461670 980__ $$aBIB 001461670 980__ $$aEBOOK 001461670 982__ $$aEbook 001461670 983__ $$aOnline 001461670 994__ $$a92$$bISE
