The contributions in this book state the complementary rather than competitive relationship between Probability and Fuzzy Set Theory and allow solutions to real life problems with suitable combinations of both theories.
The contributions in this book connect Probability Theory/Statistics and Fuzzy Set Theory in different ways. Some of these connections are either philosophical or theoretical in nature, but most of them state models and methods to work with fuzzy data (or fuzzy perception) when dealing with random experiments. In this way, several probabilistic studies are developed, as well as techniques and criteria to get descriptive and inferential statistical conclusions from fuzzy data. On the other hand, some studies have been devoted to fuzzy measures and their relationship with measures in Probability Theory.
