Risk and decision analysis

In the research group DECIDE we conduct research within the areas decision and risk analysis, as well as a variety of applications of these in different domains such as urban planning, public procurement, treatment of hazardous materials, energy and heat management in buildings, and humanitarian demining. We are developing both conceptual models and computational methods, including software or web based tools and associated processes for pursuing rational decision making in business and society by exploring criteria, alternatives and consequences in decision situations. Of prime concern is how to enable decision evaluation when the background information is highly uncertain or partly unknown. The DECIDE research group consists of the main node at Stockholm University and research nodes at other universities in Sweden and beyond.
