In standard Bayesian inference, a-priori distributions are assumed to be classical probability distributions. This is a topic of critical discussions because, in reality, a-priori information is usually more or less non-precise, i.e. fuzzy. Hence, a more general form of a-priori distributions...

DEA (data envelopment analysis) has been widely used for the efficiency analysis of industrial production process. However, the conventional DEA model is difficult to analyze the pros and cons of the multi DMUs (decision-making units). The DEACM (DEA cross-model) can distinguish the pros and...

Statistical hypothesis testing is very important for finding decisions in practical problems. Usually, the underlying data are assumed to be precise numbers, but it is much more realistic in general to consider fuzzy values which are non-precise numbers. In this case the test statistic will also...

The use of the fuzzy scale of measurement to describe an important number of observations from real-life attributes or variables is first explored. In contrast to other well-known scales (like nominal or ordinal), a wide class of statistical measures and techniques can be properly applied to...

Purpose – Constructing a fuzzy control chart with interval-valued fuzzy data is an important topic in the fields of medical, sociological, economics, service and management. In particular, when the data illustrates uncertainty, inconsistency and is incomplete which is often the. case of real...
