Decision Basis Evaluation: Toward Safe Machine Intelligence

Decision basis evaluation is the process by which a decision maker evaluates the basis of its decision after experiencing the consequence of implementing its decision. Incorporating decision basis evaluation into autonomous decision making machines may enhance public safety. This book presents both the theory and practice of decision basis evaluation, with an emphasis on practice. The book may appeal to readers in a wide range of disciplines, including artificial intelligence, decision theory, philosophy, and computer science.
