Abstract

This chapter introduces firstly what is imprecise information and then examines the origin of imprecise information, thus revealing the formation principle of imprecise information, and then, it discusses the distinction and correlation between imprecision and uncertainty of information, the research issues of imprecise-information processing, and significance of studying imprecise-information processing and the related disciplines and fields; finally, it outlines the work of the book. Besides, a survey of researches on imprecise-information processing is given in the chapter.
