Its participants provide their best advances in the area and share new challenges in order to create an atmosphere capable of creating synergies among the authors, and the key- note speakers focus on achieving these goals and new ones, such as the preparation of a European project. The general scope and particular topics are perfectly in line with the very essence, phi- losophy and policy of Horizon 2020, the new EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation. As it can be seen from the relevant contributions presented at ESCIM 2016, and then included in the procedings, a rich and powerful set of various tools and techniques of computational intelligence and mathematics has shown its full potential in solving a wide variety of problems of science, technology, business, etc. Therefore, one can say that computational intelligence must be a fundamental tool in order to solve the new problems and challenges which the society faces. This importance concerns virtually all disciplines in engineering, computer science, data sciences, physics, chem- istry, material sciences, etc. to just name a few. Possible Horizon 2020 projects which would concern all these disciplines would have a huge impact and should without doubt be funded. The European Symposium on Computational Intelligence and Mathematics arises as a merger between the Győr Symposia on Computational Intelligence (successfully orga- nized from 2008 to 2014 in Győr, Hungary), and the International Workshop on Math- ematics and Soft Computing, which combines the area of computational intelligence, which has become one of the main research topics at the Széchenyi István University in the last years, and the different developments in mathematics applied to computer science. The location has been changed but preserves the philosophy of the past Győr Symposia enriched from a more mathematical perspective. That is, bringing together scientists and engineers working in the field of computational intelligence and mathe- matics to solve current challenges in these fundamental areas. Sofia will

  • Consensus Reaching in Multi-Agent Decision Making: the Role of Fuzzy Logic, Human Judgments, Biases and Fairness Analyses
    Consensus reaching in multi-agent decision making: the role of fuzzy logic, human judgments, biases and fairness analyses Janusz Kacprzyk Fellow of IEEE, IFSA, EurAI, SMIA Full Member, Polish Academy of Sciences Foreign Member, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences Member, Academia Europaea Member, European Academy of Sceinces and Arts Foreign Member, Spanish Royal Academy of Economic and Financial Sciences Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences ul. Newelska 6, 01-447 Warsaw, Poland Email: [email protected] Abstract Decision making processes involving multiple agents (individuals, actors, decision makers, etc.) is concerned, and small groups of agents are assumed. The agents provide theirn testimonies, here their (fuzzy or graded) preferences. As a point of departure the reaching of consensus is discussed that may be claimed to lead to “better” decisions. A “soft” concept of consensus is assumed, in the sense of Kacprzyk and Fedrizzi (1987 - …) meant as a degree to which, e.g., “most of relevant agents agree as to their preferences (or other testimonies as, e.g., ordering of options) as to almost all crucial options”. The fuzzy majority, equated with linguistic quantifiers, is dealt with using the classic Zadeh’s calculus, OWA operators, etc. As usually, we mean consensus as a state of agreement in a group, as a way to reach consensus in the sense of time evolution of changes of the agents’ testimonies, and also as a way decision making should proceed in multiegent settings. Basically, consensus decision making aims at attaining the consent, not necessarily the agreement, of agents involved account for views of all agents involved to attain a decision that will be beneficial to the group as a whole, not necessarily to the particular agents who may give consent even if this will not be their first choice but just acceptable, to offer their willingness to cooperate.

Nalepa ∗, Jerzy Stefanowski y Abstract. In last years Artificial Intelligence presented a tremendous progress by offering a variety of novel methods, tools and their spectacular applications. Besides showing scientific breakthroughs it attracted interest both of the general public and industry. It also opened heated debates on the impact of Artificial Intelligence on changing the economy and society. Having in mind this international landscape, in this short paper we discuss the Polish AI research community, some of its main achievements, opportunities and limitations. We put this discussion in the context of the current developments in the international AI community. Moreover, we refer to activities of Polish scientific associations and their initiative of founding Polish Alliance for the Development of Artificial Intelligence (PP-RAI). Finally two last editions of PP-RAI joint conferences are summarized. 1. Introductory remarks Artificial Intelligence (AI) began as an academic discipline nearly 70 years ago, while during the Dartmouth conference in 1956 the expression Artificial Intelligence was coined as the label for it. Since that time it has been evolving a lot and developing in the cycles of optimism and pessimism [27]. In the first period research in several main subfields were started but the expectations the founders put were not fully real- ized.

  • Burhan Turksen and Masoud Nikravesh
    A GLIMPSE INTO THE FUTURE Moderators: Burhan Turksen and Masoud Nikravesh Panelists: Janusz Kacprzyk, K. Hirota, Vesa Niskenan, Masoud Nikravesh, Henri Prade, Enric Trillas, Burhan Turksen, Ron Yager, Lotfi A. Zadeh Predicting the future of fuzzy logic is difficult if fuzzy logic is interpreted in its wide sense, that is, a theory in which everything is or is allowed to be a matter of degree. But what is certain is that as we move further into the age of machine intelligence and mechanized decision-making, both theoretical and applied aspects of fuzzy logic will gain in visibility and importance. What will stand out is the unique capability of fuzzy logic to serve as a basis for reasoning and computation with information described in natural language. No other theory has this capability. Moderator: Burhan Turksen: I.B. Türksen received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in Industrial Engineering and the Ph.D. degree in Systems Management and Operations Research all from the University of Pittsburgh, PA. He joined the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering at the University of Toronto and became Full Professor in 1983. In 1984-1985 academic year, he was a Visiting Professor at the Middle East Technical University and Osaka Prefecture University. Since 1987, he has been Director of the Knowledge / Intelligence Systems Laboratory. During the 1991- 1992 academic year, he was a Visiting Research Professor at LIFE Laboratory for International Fuzzy Engineering, and the Chair of Fuzzy Theory at Tokyo Institute of Technology. During 1996 academic year, he was Visiting Research Professor at the University of South Florida and Bilkent University.
