The International Symposium on Integrated Uncertainty in Knowledge Modelling and Decision Making (IUKM) aims to provide a forum for exchanges of research results, ideas for and experience of application among researchers and practitioners involved with all aspects of uncertainty management and application. The origin of this conference series started in 2010 at Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Ishikawa, Japan under the title of the International Symposium on Integrated Uncertainty Management and Applications (
IUM 2010). The name of the conference series was then changed to its current title at the second edition (
IUKM 2011) held in October 2011 at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China; and the third and fourth editions were held in Beijing, China (
IUKM 2013) and Nha Trang, Vietnam (
IUKM 2015), respectively.
The fifth International Symposium on Integrated Uncertainty in Knowledge Modelling and Decision Making (
IUKM 2016) will take place in the central coastal city of Da Nang, Vietnam, during 30 November - 2 December, 2016, and be jointly organized by Duy Tan University (
DTU), Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (
JAIST), Belief Functions and Applications Society (
