Abstract

In this paper, we give some basic principle of possibility models and its applications. We briefly review possibility analysis based on the max-min operator and explain possibility analysis based on exponential possibility distributions in contrast to statistical analysis. Using possibility analysis, we show an identification method of possibility distributions and fuzzy data analysis such as regression analysis.
