Relational structures abound in our daily environment: relational databases, data mining, scaling procedures, preference relations, etc. As the documentation of scientific results achieved within the European COST Action 274, TARSKI, this book advances the understanding of relational structures and the use of relational methods in various application fields. The 12 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected for presentations. The papers are devoted to mechanization of relational reasoning, relational scaling and preferences, and algebraic and logical foundations of real world relations.

Genre: Computers
ISBN: 3642145213

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Unifying Theories of Programming, UTP 2008, held at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland, in September 2008. The 15 revised full papers presented, together with two invited talks, were carefully reviewed and selected from 20 submissions. Based on the pioneering work on unifying theories of programming of Tony Hoare, He Jifeng, and others, the aims of this Symposium series are to continue to reaffirm the significance of the ongoing UTP project, to encourage efforts to advance it by providing a focus for the sharing of results by those already actively contributing, and to raise awareness of the benefits of such a unifying theoretical framework among the wider computer science and software engineering communities.

This two-volume set (CCIS 1601-1602) constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Conference on Information Processing and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge-Based Systems, IPMU 2021, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2022. The 124 papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 188 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections as follows: aggregation theory beyond the unit interval; formal concept analysis and uncertainty; fuzzy implication functions; fuzzy mathematical analysis and its applications; generalized sets and operators; information fusion techniques based on aggregation functions, pre-aggregation functions, and their generalizations; interval uncertainty; knowledge acquisition, representation and reasoning; logical structures of opposition and logical syllogisms; mathematical fuzzy logics; theoretical and applied aspects of imprecise probabilities; data science and machine learning; decision making modeling and applications; e-health; fuzzy methods in data mining and knowledge discovery; soft computing and artificia intelligence techniques in image processing; soft methods in statistics and data analysis; uncertainty, heterogeneity, reliability and explainability in AI; weak and cautious supervised learning.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 12 International Conference on Relational and Algebraic Methods in Computer Science, RAMICS 2011, held in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, in May/June 2011. This conference merges the RelMICS (Relational Methods in Computer Science) and AKA (Applications of Kleene Algebra) conferences, which have been a main forum for researchers who use the calculus of relations and similar algebraic formalisms as methodological and conceptual tools. Relational and algebraic methods and software tools turn out to be useful for solving problems in social choice and game theory. For that reason this conference included a special track on Computational Social Choice and Social Software. The 18 papers included were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. In addition the volume contains 2 invited tutorials and 5 invited talks.
