Abstract

In this paper we consider systems whose performance depends on probability distributions and some of the parameters in these probability distributions are to be estimated from data. We argue that all such systems become fuzzy systems whose performance will depend on fuzzy probability distributions and whose measures of performance can be described by fuzzy numbers. Many crisp systems will become fuzzy systems under this procedure.
