Our Goal

Grey Systems theory is a new method to study unascertained problems with poor data. Grey Systems theory works on unascertain systems with partially known and partially unknown information, and by drawing out valuable information from the generating and developing of the partially known information. In light of this emerging discipline trend, this technical committee will focus on both the fundamental theory and practical applications of Grey Systems and advocate its development. This technical committee aims to bring together experts and practicians in the field of grey systems from all around the world to share their research and practical application results, exchange ideas, promote mutual understanding, and seek collaborations.

Join Us

Join us in the TC on Grey Systems. We will explore this area in both theoretic development and practical applications such as in analyses, modeling, predictions, decision making, and control of various systems. You can exchange your ideas, and displaying your research results with your peers in similar areas.
