The Grey System Theory was first introduced in the 1980s by Prof. Deng Julong at Huazhong University of Science and Technology. It is a method that focuses on poor information data. To popularize and inherit the Grey System Theory, Prof. Liu Sifeng and his team in Grey System Research Institute of NUAA did a lot of work.
