Abstract

A new technique for forming information granules is shown in this chapter. Based on the theory of uncertainty-based information, an approach is proposed which forms Interval Type-2 Fuzzy information granules. This approach captures multiple evaluations of uncertainty from taken samples and uses these models to measure the uncertainty from the difference in these. The proposed approach is tested through multiple benchmark datasets: iris, wine, glass, and a 5th order curve identification.
