Implementing Fuzzy Random Variables -- Some Preliminary Observations
نویسنده
چکیده
Three definitions of fuzzy random variables (FRVs) have been cited in the current literature: the first is due to Kwakernaak (1978), who viewed a FRV as a vague perception of a crisp but unobservable RV; the second is due to Puri and Ralescu (1986), who regarded FRVs as random fuzzy sets; and the third is due to Liu and Liu (2003), whose notion of FRV was based on a concept they called a credibility measure. Given the different rationales, three questions arise: (1) how is each of these views of FRVs conceptualized; (2) what are the differences and similarities between the metrics for each of these views, and (3) how are the metrics for these three views implemented. The purpose of this article is to present some preliminary observations with respect to the answers to these questions.

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...
متن کاملSOME 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...
متن کاملCramér-Rao Lower Bound for Fuzzy-Valued Random Variables
In some point estimation problems, we may confront imprecise (fuzzy) concepts. One important case is a situation where all observations are fuzzy rather than crisp. In this paper, using fuzzy set theory, we define a fuzzy-valued random variable, a fuzzy unbiased estimator, a fuzzy exponential family, and then we state and prove a Cramér-Rao lower bound for such fuzzy estimators. Finally, we giv...
متن کاملESTIMATORS BASED ON FUZZY RANDOM VARIABLES AND THEIR MATHEMATICAL PROPERTIES
In statistical inference, the point estimation problem is very crucial and has a wide range of applications. When, we deal with some concepts such as random variables, the parameters of interest and estimates may be reported/observed as imprecise. Therefore, the theory of fuzzy sets plays an important role in formulating such situations. In this paper, we rst recall the crisp uniformly minimum ...
متن کاملNew independence definition of fuzzy random variable and random fuzzy variable∗
Fuzzy random variable is a measurable function from a probability space to the set of fuzzy variables, while random fuzzy variable is a function from a credibility space to the set of random variables. The concepts of independent and identically distributed fuzzy random variables and random fuzzy variables are presented, and some useful properties are discussed.
