Abstract

In hypotheses testing, such as other statistical problems, we may confront with imprecise concepts. One case is a situation in which both hypotheses and observations are imprecise. In this paper, using fuzzy set theory for formulation of imprecise hypotheses and observations, we analyze mentioned problem on the basis of a Bayesian method.
