Fuzzy Randomness -Towards a new Modeling of Uncertainty (original) (raw)

Abstract

In the paper a new concept of modeling uncertainty is presented, based on the theory of fuzzy random variables. By this means, a super-ordinate uncertainty model is made available which includes the models developed so far, based on random variables and fuzzy variables as special cases.
