Description

Relational mathematics is to operations research and informatics what numerical mathematics is to engineering: it is intended to help modelling, reasoning, and computing.

Its applications are therefore diverse, ranging from psychology, linguistics, decision aid, and ranking to machine learning and spatial reasoning.

Although many developments have been made in recent years, they have rarely been shared amongst this broad community of researchers.

This comprehensive 2010 overview begins with an easy introduction to the topic, assuming a minimum of prerequisites; but it is nevertheless theoretically sound and up to date.

It is suitable for applied scientists, explaining all the necessary mathematics from scratch using a multitude of visualised examples, via matrices and graphs.

It ends with tangible results on the research level.

The author illustrates the theory and demonstrates practical tasks in operations research, social sciences and the humanities.
