Special Session on Machine learning and decision making under weakly structured information
at the 11th International Conference on Soft Methods in Probability and Statistics (SMPS 2024)
Salzburg (Austria), September 4-6, 2024
Session topic and goal This session deals with machine learning problems that appear under weak information structures and, therefore, fail to be handled by traditional methods. The reason for the weak structure can be manifold, ranging from complex data and non-typical scales of measurement to generalized uncertainty models such as imprecise probabilities. In particular, the topics of the session include (but are not limited to):
Imprecise probabilities in ML and statistics
Preferences in ML and statistics
Decision theoretic approaches in ML and statistics
Formal concept analysis in ML and statistics
Non-standard data (e.g. ordinal data, mixed-scaled data)
(Generalized) Bayesian methods in ML and statistics
Uncertainty quantification in ML and statistics
Robustness in decision theory
Robust statistics
Dates Paper submission deadline: February 29, 2024 Author notification: April 21, 2024 Conference: September 4-6, 2024
