Soft Computing for Risk Evaluation and Management

Download or read book Soft Computing for Risk Evaluation and Management written by Da Ruan and published by Physica. This book was released on 2012-08-10 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk is a crucial element in virtually all problems people in diverse areas face in their activities. It is impossible to find adequate models and solutions without taking it into account. Due to uncertainty and complexity in those problems, traditional "hard" tools and techniques may be insufficient for their formulation and solution. This is the first book in the literature that shows how soft computing methods (fuzzy logic, neural networks, genetic algorithms, etc.) can be employed to deal with various problems related to risk analysis, evaluation and management in various fields of technology, environment and finance.
