Abstract

This chapter provides the main definitions and discusses different classes of fuzzy measures and relations between them. The defining properties of the special classes are used in the subsequent chapters for simplification purposes, or to represent semantics of their application.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Decomposability usually requires \(\mathcal A \cap \mathcal B = \emptyset \), however this is not the case for possibility and necessity measures.

  2. 2.

    A set \(\mathcal E\) is convex if \(\alpha x+(1-\alpha )y\in \mathcal E\) for all \(x,y \in \mathcal E, \alpha \in [0,1]\).
