Last year has been packed with interesting scientific events related to preference handling, including workshops and tutorials at ECAI, sessions on preference learning at EURO, and a dedicated workshop on the relationship between preference modeling and preference learning.
Although it is still quite early in 2013, new events are already at the horizon. Read more
Whereas the decision sciences have elaborated and explored preference models for explaining, predicting, and guiding decision making behaviour since more than hundred years, newer research started in the fields of artificial intelligence and other human-centered computational fields is investigating how to represent rich preference information compactly.

Ten years later and the results are impressive. The workshops on advances in preference handling became a hub of knowledge. Researchers from artificial intelligence, data-base systems, operations research exchanged methods for preference modeling, preference representation, preference aggregation, preference elicitation and used them for problems as diverse as … Read more
Computing has become a pleasure thanks to human-oriented computing devices such as tablets and human-friendly interface designs. People now have the computational tools in their hands that facilitate activities such as news reading, photo editing, gaming, and many more. However, as for any other tool, the user must decide what the tool has to do and this for each operation … Read more
This blog provides news about recent events that are related to preference handling. It will be updated in regular time periods and take a picture of what has happened in the recent period such as workshops and conferences, book publications and special issues, PhD theses, and so on. Contributions can be submitted via the steering committee of the working group in advances in preference Handling. Read more
