Abstract

Proper evaluation of evidence from multiple sources is often difficult, especially when some or all of that evidence is ill-defined. A combination of traditional probabilistic methods and fuzzy set theory provides a way to combine such evidence in a statistically meaningful manner. This paper shows that appropriate versions of Bayes' Theorem apply to fuzzy events.
