Inference with Fuzzy and Probabilistic Information

  • Conference paper
Book cover Computational Intelligence for Knowledge-Based Systems Design (IPMU 2010)

Abstract

In the paper we deal with fuzzy sets under the interpretation given in a coherent probabilistic setting. We provide a general Bayesian inference process involving fuzzy and partial probabilistic information by showing its peculiarities.
