Parametric testing statistical hypotheses for fuzzy random variables

OPTIMAL STATISTICAL TESTS BASED ON FUZZY RANDOM VARIABLES

A novel approach is proposed for the problem of testing statistical hypotheses about the fuzzy mean of a fuzzy random variable.The concept of the (uniformly) most powerful test is extended to the (uniformly) most powerful fuzzy-valued test in which the test function is a fuzzy set representing the degrees of rejection and acceptance of the hypothesis of interest.For this purpose, the concepts o...

Testing Statistical Hypotheses in Fuzzy Environment

In traditional statistics all parameters of the mathematical model and possible observations should be well defined. Sometimes such assumption appears too rigid for the real-life problems, especially while dealing with linguistic data or imprecise requirements. To relax this rigidity fuzzy methods are incorporated into statistics. We review hitherto existing achievements in testing statistical ...

TESTING STATISTICAL HYPOTHESES UNDER FUZZY DATA AND BASED ON A NEW SIGNED DISTANCE

This paper deals with the problem of testing statisticalhypotheses when the available data are fuzzy. In this approach, wefirst obtain a fuzzy test statistic based on fuzzy data, and then,based on a new signed distance between fuzzy numbers, we introducea new decision rule to accept/reject the hypothesis of interest.The proposed approach is investigated for two cases: the casewithout nuisance p...

Dominated Convergence for Fuzzy Random Variables

SOME PROBABILISTIC INEQUALITIES FOR FUZZY RANDOM VARIABLES

In this paper, the concepts of positive dependence and linearlypositive quadrant dependence are introduced for fuzzy random variables. Also,an inequality is obtained for partial sums of linearly positive quadrant depen-dent fuzzy random variables. Moreover, a weak law of large numbers is estab-lished for linearly positive quadrant dependent fuzzy random variables. Weextend some well known inequ...
