Abstract of the special session:
Results from every engineering analysis ultimately serve as decision support. Hence, it is often relevant to set the analysis in the context of a formal decision framework, to ensure proper interpretation of results and optimal choices. In addition, the advent of increasingly automated and autonomous systems with independent decision making capabilities requires new approaches and methods for quantifying and validating safety and reliability.
This mini-symposium aims at gathering researchers interested in developing and applying methods related to optimal decision making under uncertainty for engineering systems. It focuses on the integration of formal decision analysis with stochastic models, data analytics, and artificial intelligence methodologies towards optimal decision making in complex settings. These can include, among others, sequential decision processes, and decisions involving multiple objectives and/or stakeholders. Selection of metrics for stochastic analysis based on decision-theoretic considerations are also of interest, such as the choice of appropriate objective functions and decision-theoretic sensitivity measures. Areas of interest, both in terms of methodologies and applications, include, but are not limited to:
