Chapter 2: Uncertain sets

Abstract

This chapter generally covers the concepts of uncertain sets. In this chapter, we define, introduce, and explain the types of uncertainties. The concept of uncertainty can come in many forms; sometimes as an unspecified set, as the expected amount or interval of data, random data, or as a combination of them all. A different perspective can be described as a membership function called fuzzy data and a combination of membership functions, probability, and distribution. Computations on the fuzzy sets are discussed in detail.
