Bridging Probabilistic and Fuzzy Approaches to Choice Under Uncertainty

摘要

Imprecise choices can be described using either a probabilistic or a fuzzy formalism. No relation between them has been studied so far. In this contribution we present a connection between the two formalisms that strongly makes use of fuzzy implication operators and t-norms. In this framework, Luce's Choice Axiom turns out to be a special case when the product t-norm is considered and other similar choice axioms can be stated, according to the t-norm in use. Also a new family of operators for transforming bipolar relations into unipolar ones is presented.
