Abstract

The mathematical representation of a concept with uncertainty is one of foundations of Artificial Intelligence. Type-2 fuzzy sets study fuzziness of the membership grade to a concept. Cloud model, based on probability measure space, automatically produces random membership grades of a concept through a cloud generator. The two methods both concentrate on the essentials of uncertainty and have been applied in many fields for more than ten years. However, their mathematical foundations are quite different. The detailed comparative study will discover the relationship between each other, and provide a fundamental contribution to Artificial Intelligence with uncertainty.
