Roman Słowiński
Roman Słowiński is a Professor and Founding Chair of the Laboratory of Intelligent Decision Support Systems at the Institute of Computing Science, Poznań University of Technology, Poland. Since 2002 he is also Professor at the Systems Research Institute of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw.
He is a Full Member of the Polish Academy of Sciences, a society of 350 leading Polish scholars. He has been elected president of the Poznań Branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences for the term 2011-2014, and has been re-elected for the second term 2015-2018. Since 2013 he is also a member of Academia Europaea.
Roman Słowiński has conducted extensive research on methodology and techniques of decision support, including multiple criteria decision aiding, preference modeling and knowledge-based decision support where he combines Operations Research and Computational Intelligence. His particular interest is focused on: addressing robustness issues in decision analysis; ordinal data mining; preference learning; modeling of uncertainty and imprecision in decision problems; rough set theory; fuzzy set theory; multiobjective optimization; project scheduling, including multiple category resources, multiple job modes, multiple criteria and uncertainty; decision support in medicine, technology, economics and environmental studies.
Today Roman Słowiński is renown for his seminal research on using rough sets in decision analysis. He started this work in 1983 with the founder of the rough set concept, the late Zdzisław Pawlak, and continued with Salvatore Greco and Benedetto Matarazzo since the early 90’s. He organized the First International Workshop on Rough Set Theory and Applications that took place in Poznań, in 1992.
As author or co-author, he has published 14 books and more than 400 articles, including 250 papers in major scientific journals (Web of Science h-index=36). He supervised 26 Ph.D. theses in Operations Research and Computer Science and a number of Master theses.
He has been holder of European Chair at the University of Paris Dauphine, and invited professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, the University of Catania, Polytech’Mons, University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, Yokohama National University, Université Laval-Québec, University of Missouri-Columbia, University of Osaka, Polytech’Tours, Ecole Centrale Paris.
Roman Słowiński is recipient of the EURO Gold Medal, and Doctor Honoris Causa of Polytechnic Faculty of Mons (2000), University Paris Dauphine (2001) and Technical University of Crete (2008). In 1997 he was given the Edgeworth-Pareto Award by International Society on Multiple Criteria Decision Making and in 2005 he received the Annual Prize of the Foundation for Polish Science - regarded as the highest scientific honor awarded in Poland.
Since 1999, he is Coordinating Editor of the European Journal of Operational Research, a premier journal in Operations Research. In years 1998-2003, he was editor of Decision Analysis Section of the International Journal on Fuzzy Sets and Systems. Currently, he is on editorial board of twenty scientific journals. He is coordinator of the EURO Working Group on Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding , and Past President of theInternational Rough Set Society. Moreover, he is a Senior Member of IEEE, and in years 2009-2013, he has been an expert of the panel (PE6–Computer Science) of the European Research Council.
