Nowadays, the black is represented, as lack of information, but the white is full of information. Thus, the information that is either incomplete or undetermined, is called Grey.
A system having incomplete information is called Grey system. The Grey number in Grey system represents a number with less complete information. The Grey element represents an element with incomplete information. The Grey relation is the relation with incomplete information. Those three terms are the typical symbols and features for Grey system and Grey phenomenon . There are several aspects for the theory of Grey system:
1. Grey generation: This is data processing to supplement information. It is aimed to process those complicate and tedious data to gain a clear rule, which is the whitening of a sequence of numbers.
2. Grey modeling: This is done by step 1 to establish a set of Grey variation equations and Grey differential equations, which is the whitening of the model.
3. Grey prediction: By using the Grey model to conduct a qualitative prediction, this is called the whitening of development.
4. Grey decision: A decision is made under imperfect countermeasure and unclear situation, which is called the whitening of status.
5. Grey relational analysis: Quantify all influences of various factors and their relation, which is called the whitening of factor relation.
6. Grey control: Work on the data of system behavior and look for any rules of behavior development to predict future’s behavior, the prediction value can be fed back into the system in order to control the system.
