Fuzzy histograms: A Statistical Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fuzzy histograms are a fuzzy generalization of ordinary crisp histograms. In this paper, fuzzy histograms are analyzed statistically and are compared with other nonparametric density estimators. It turns out that fuzzy histograms can be used to combine a high level of statistical efficiency with a high level of computational efficiency.

Univariate statistical analysis with fuzzy data
Statistical data are frequently not precise numbers but more or less non-precise, also called fuzzy. Measurements of continuous variables are always fuzzy to a certain degree. Therefore histograms and generalized classical statistical inference methods for univariate fuzzy data have to be considered. Moreover Bayesian inference methods in the situation of fuzzy a-priori information and fuzzy da...

--Thresholding, the problem of pixel classification is attempted here using fuzzy clustering algorithms. The segmented regions are fuzzy subsets, with soft partitions characterizing the region boundaries. The validity of the assumptions and thresholding schemes are investigated in the presence of distinct region proportions. The hard k means and fuzzy c means algorithms have been found useful w...
متن کاملFuzzy Histograms and Fuzzy Probability Distributions
Given fuzzy data the concept of histograms has to be extended to so-called fuzzy histograms in order to incorporate fuzziness into considerations. For these fuzzy histograms the height over a class itself is fuzzy. Based on this the extension of classical probability distributions to so-called fuzzy probability distributions on arbitrary σ-algebras is described, the main properties of fuzzy pro...
متن کاملQuasi-continuous histograms
Histograms are very useful for summarizing statistical information associated with a set of observed data. They are one of the most frequently used density estimators due to their ease of implementation and interpretation. However, histograms suffer from a high sensitivity to the choice of both reference interval and bin width. This paper addresses this difficulty by means of a fuzzy partition....
متن کاملFlowCytoVis: Visualization Tool for Flow Cytometry Data Standards Project
The research in the Terry Fox Laboratory (TFL), BC Cancer Agency, Vancouver, BC involves the use of flow cytometry (FCM) technology. Current methods of visualization of these specific data include scatterplots, histograms and contour diagrams, which have their disadvantages in multidimensional data analysis. The work presented in this paper introduces a new visualization tool for flow cytometry...
