The Wabl/Ldev/Rdev Median of a Random Fuzzy Number and Statistical Properties

  • Chapter
Strengthening Links Between Data Analysis and Soft Computing

Abstract

In this paper the population and sample medians of a real-valued random variable are generalized to deal with random fuzzy numbers. The extension is based on a representation of fuzzy numbers for which necessary and sufficient conditions to characterize them have been previously established. Relevant statistical properties for these medians are studied.
