This volume is about knowledge processing with interval and soft computing, i.e., about techniques that use both interval and soft computing to process knowledge and about the results of applying these techniques. To better understand these techniques, in Chapter 1, we described fundamentals of interval computing, and in Chapter 2, we described the fundamentals of soft computing. Now it is time...

The main efforts and applications up to now are focused on the spatial variability analysis within a field. The spatial variability of soil properties within a field was evaluated using geostatistical analysis and the interpolation methods for mapping soil properties were compared in this paper. This experimentation was conducted in a wheat field of the trail farm in Shunyi County, Beijing. The...

In this paper, a new soft computing group decision method based on the concept of compromise ratio is introduced for determining decision makers (DMs)' weights through the group decision process under uncertainty. In this method, preferences and judgments of the DMs or experts are expressed by linguistic terms for rating the industrial alternatives among selected criteria as well as the relativ...

Information about the distribution and abundance of the habitat-forming sessile organisms in marine ecosystems is of great importance for conservation and natural resource managers. Spatial interpolation methodologies can be useful to generate this information from in situ sampling points, especially in circumstances where remote sensing methodologies cannot be applied due to small-scale spatia...
