About & Academic CV

Industrial engineering, uncertainty and intelligent decision systems.

Prof. Dr. Erdal Aydemir is a Professor of Industrial Engineering at Suleyman Demirel University in Isparta, Türkiye. This page presents his academic profile, appointments, education, identifiers, graduate supervision and research interests.

Academic profile

His research focuses on developing quantitative methods for complex industrial problems where information may be incomplete, uncertain or difficult to model using purely probabilistic assumptions.

Current work increasingly connects Grey Systems Theory with artificial intelligence and explainability, with the aim of building decision systems that are not only effective, but also interpretable and trustworthy.
