About this book

The book presents a collection of peer-reviewed articles from the 11th KES International Conference on Intelligent Decision Technologies (KES-IDT-19), held Malta on 17–19 June 2019. The conference provided opportunities for the presentation of new research results and discussion about them. It was also an opportunity to generation of new ideas in the field of intelligent decision making. The range of topics explored is wide, and covers methods of classification, prediction, data analysis, decision support, modelling and many more in such areas as finance, cybersecurity, economy, health, management and transportation. The topics cover also problems of data science, signal processing and knowledge engineering.
