Abstract:
The psychometric properties of the Decision-making Questionnaire which was designed to assess decision-making in an organizational context were investigated by administering the questionnaire to 54 undergraduate students. The dimensions measured are Effectiveness, Confidence, and Information used in making both tactical and strategic organizational decisions. The assessment of the Effectiveness scores consisted of examining item-to-total correlations, principal components analyses, and internal consistencies. Also, the relationships amongst all three dimensions measured by the scale as well as

Abstract:
The aim of this study was twofold: one was to test the impact of the involvement on the parental outcome bias, and the second was to refine the measurement of outcome bias, normally reported as the difference between evaluations of a single decision, with different outcomes assigned to it. We introduced the evaluation of a decision without an outcome, to induce theoretically normative evaluation, unbiased by outcome, from which the evaluation shift could be calculated in either direction. To test this refinement in the parental decision-making context, we produced childcare dilemmas with varyi

Abstract:
We examine the deployment of multiple mobile sensors to explore an unknown region to map regions containing concentration of a physical quantity such as heat, electron density, and so on. The exploration trades off between two desiderata: to continue taking data in a region known to contain the quantity of interest with the intent of refining the measurements vs. taking data in unobserved areas to attempt to discover new regions where the quantity may exist. Making reasonable and practical decisions to simultaneously fulfill both goals of exploration and data refinement seem to be hard and con

Abstract:
Database queries are often used to select and rank items as decision support for many applications. As automated decision-making tools become more prevalent, there is a growing recognition of the need to diversify their outcomes. In this paper, we define and study the problem of modifying the selection conditions of an ORDER BY query so that the result of the modified query closely fits some user-defined notion of diversity while simultaneously maintaining the intent of the original query. We show the hardness of this problem and propose a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) based solution

The uncertainty of decision making in event hierarchies of CEP can be due to unreliable data sources, lack of conformance that the event which is reported has actually occurred. Also the Complex Event models which are used to define complex events are inaccurate. When the uncertain event is used for deriving complex event, it propagates its uncertainty to a higher level of event hierarchy and causes uncertainty in reasoning.

Based on the concept of Pareto dominance, the skyline process extracts the most interesting (not dominated in the sense of Pareto) objects from a set of data.

Abstract:
Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has garnered substantial acclaim for its versatility and widespread applications across diverse domains. Aligned with human-like learning, DRL is grounded in the fundamental principle of learning from interaction, wherein agents dynamically adjust behavior based on environmental feedback in the form of rewards. This iterative trial-and-error process, mirroring human learning, underscores the importance of observation, experimentation, and feedback in shaping understanding and behavior. DRL agents, trained to navigate complex surroundings, refine their knowledg

Abstract:
Information gathering and refinement are critical activities in conceptual design. A decision-based framework is developed consisting of three main components: a flexible, extensible design space model based on a Gaussian kernel which synthesizes information from design instances; expected value decision-making which focuses the design process on the most promising subspaces within this model; and information value theory which identifies uncertainty in the design evaluation whose reduction could redirect the design process. Together, these components form a normative method for conceptual des

Abstract:
A partition-based framework is presented for a formal study of classification problems. An information table is used as a knowledge representation, in which all basic notions are precisely defined by using a language known as the decision logic language. Solutions to, and solution space of, classification problems are formulated in terms of partitions. Algorithms for finding solutions are modelled as searching in a space of partitions under the refinement order relation. We focus on a particular type of solutions called conjunctively definable partitions. Two level-wise methods for decision tr

Abstract:
We present an automata-theoretic decision procedure for Since/Until Temporal Logic (SUTL), a linear-time propositional temporal logic with strong non-strict since and until operators. The logic, which is intended for specifying and reasoning about computer systems, employs neither next nor previous operators. Such operators obstruct the use of hierarchical abstraction and refinement and make reasoning about concurrency difficult. A proof of the soundness and completeness of the decision procedure is given, and its complexity is analyzed.

Abstract:
Considerable interest has been shown in the teaching of decision-making skills to Australian adolescents during the past decade. Acceptable modes of teaching are currently being researched and refined. The experiences of one Victorian co-educational school as it grapples with this task are described. How the program is adapted and modified over a three-year period is detailed. Some encouraging findings in relation to teaching methodology, ‘at risk’ students and parent partnership are described, as well as future suggestions for program refinement. The value of multi-model evaluation is discuss

Abstract:
In the manuscript, we propose a novel online learning mechanism based on educational data mining. By leveraging the computer-assisted information-based learning guidance platform, we collect the relevant information of students’ login platform and resource browsing. Subsequently, we preprocess these students’ login data based on which the statistical analysis of students’ login and resource browsing habits are learned through a decision-making mechanism. The decision tree algorithm discovers the underlying factors that influence it from million-scale real-world instructors/students. In this wa

Abstract:
Problem-solving procedures have been typically aimed at achieving well-defined goals or satisfying straightforward preferences. However, learners and solvers may often generate rich multiattribute results with procedures guided by sets of controls that define different dimensions of quality. We explore methods that enable people to explore and express preferences about the operation of classification models in supervised multiclass learning. We leverage a leave-one-out confusion matrix that provides users with views and real-time controls of a model space. The approach allows people to conside
