Proceedings of the Symposium on Application of Decision Theory to Problems of Diagnosis and Reparir, Held at Fairborn, Ohio on 2-3 June 1976,

Abstract

The papers presented at this symposium focus on the analysis of decision making in an environment where the diagnosis and repair of complex mechanisms requires the use of still imperfect measurements of several factors. These analyses take several forms, among these are: (1) estimating the effects of incorrect decisions on costs, reliability and other elements of the loss function, (2) determining the variability of tests and test procedures, (3) determining the best sequence of tests, and (4) simulating the effects of alternative decision criteria on equipment repair processes. None of the papers offers a complete approach to decision making in this complex environment. However, each presents an approach to a significant portion of the problem. Our hope is that in discussing and comparing the approaches presented here, our understanding of the problem will be increased. (Author)
