商品描述

This book explains and illustrates recent developments and advances in decision-making and risk analysis. It demonstrates how artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have not only benefitted from classical decision analysis concepts such as expected utility maximization but have also contributed to making normative decision theory more useful by forcing it to confront realistic complexities. These include skill acquisition, uncertain and time-consuming implementation of intended actions, open-world uncertainties about what might happen next and what consequences actions can have, and learning to cope effectively with uncertain and changing environments. The result is a more robust and implementable technology for AI/ML-assisted decision-making.

The book is intended to inform a wide audience in related applied areas and to provide a fun and stimulating resource for students, researchers, and academics in data science and AI-ML, decision analysis, and other closely linked academic fields. It will also appeal to managers, analysts, decision-makers, and policymakers in financial, health and safety, environmental, business, engineering, and security risk management.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書解釋並說明了決策與風險分析的最新發展與進展。它展示了人工智慧(AI)和機器學習(ML)如何不僅受益於傳統決策分析概念,如期望效用最大化,還如何促使規範性決策理論變得更有用,因為它迫使理論面對現實中的複雜性。這些複雜性包括技能獲得、意圖行動的不確定性和耗時的實施、對未來可能發生的事情及行動可能帶來的後果的開放性不確定性,以及學習有效應對不確定和變化環境的能力。最終結果是為AI/ML輔助決策提供了一種更穩健且可實施的技術。

本書旨在向相關應用領域的廣泛讀者提供資訊,並為數據科學和AI-ML、決策分析及其他密切相關的學術領域的學生、研究人員和學者提供一個有趣且具啟發性的資源。它也將吸引金融、健康與安全、環境、商業、工程及安全風險管理領域的管理者、分析師、決策者和政策制定者。
