In many contexts, one is confronted with the problem of extracting information from large amounts of different types soft data (e.g., text) and hard data (from e.g., physics-based sensing systems). In handling hard data, signal and data processing offers a wealth of methods related to modeling, estimation, tracking, and inference tasks. However, soft data present several challenges that necessitate...
Automated Collaborative Filtering (ACF) refers to a group of algorithms used in recommender systems, a research topic that has received considerable attention due to its e-commerce applications. However, existing techniques are rarely capable of dealing with imperfections in user-supplied ratings. When such imperfections (e.g., ambiguities) cannot be avoided, designers resort to simplifying assumptions...
Incorporation of soft evidence into the fusion process poses considerable challenges, including issues related to the material implications of propositional logic statements, contradictory evidence, and non-identical scopes of sources providing soft evidence. The conditional approach to Dempster-Shafer (DS) theoretic evidence updating and fusion provides a promising avenue for overcoming these challenges...
