Spatial information is pervaded by uncertainty. Indeed,
geographical data is often obtained by an imperfect interpretation
of remote sensing images, while people attach ill-defined or
ambiguous labels to places and their properties. As another
example, medical images are often the result of measurements by
imprecise sensors (e.g. MRI scans). Moreover, by processing spatial
information in real-world applications, additional uncertainty is
introduced, e.g. due to the use of interpolation/extrapolation
techniques or to conflicts that are detected in an information
fusion step. To the best of our knowledge, this book presents the
first overview of spatial uncertainty which goes beyond the setting
of geographical information systems. Uncertainty issues are
especially addressed from a representation and reasoning point of
view. In particular, the book consists of 14 chapters, which are
clustered around three central topics. The first of these topics is
about the uncertainty in meaning of linguistic descriptions of
spatial scenes. Second, the issue of reasoning about spatial
relations and dealing with inconsistency in information merging is
studied. Finally, interpolation and prediction of spatial phenomena
are investigated, both at the methodological level and from an
application-oriented perspective. The concept of uncertainty by
itself is understood in a broad sense, including both quantitative
and more qualitative approaches, dealing with variability,
epistemic uncertainty, as well as with vagueness of terms.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 14th European
Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning
with Uncertainty, ECSQARU 2017, held in Lugano, Switzerland, in
July 2017. The 44 revised full papers presented together with 5
abstracts of invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected
from 63 submissions and cover topics on analogical reasoning;
argumentation; Bayesian networks; belief functions; conditionals;
credal sets, credal networks; decision theory, decision making and
reasoning under uncertainty; fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic; logics;
orthopairs; possibilistic networks; and probabilistic logics,
probabilistic reasoning.
Cet ouvrage issu d'enseignements de 2eme et 3eme cycle se veut une
initiation a la theorie algebrique des codes correcteurs d'erreurs.
Il s'adresse aussi bien a un public d'etudiants que de chercheurs
ou d'ingenieurs dans le domaine des mathematiques ou de
l'informatique. Il aborde a la fois les aspects theoriques et
pratiques. Il presente un apercu historique de la Theorie des
Codes. Toutes les notions algebriques necessaires sont completement
developpees. Il presente egalement plusieurs exemples
d'applications industrielles comme le code utilise pour le disque
compact. Les perspectives de recherche sont abordees par la
description de themes de recherche en cours ainsi que par une liste
de problemes sur des sujets non abordes ici.
