Abstract

In many cases, fuzziness and randomness simultaneously appear in a system. Hybrid variable is a tool to describe this phenomena. Fuzzy random variable and random fuzzy variable are instances of hybrid variable. In order to measure hybrid event, a concept of chance measure is proposed in this paper. Furthermore, several useful properties about this measure are proved such as self-duality, subadditivity and semicontinuity. Some concepts are also presented such as chance distribution, expected value, variance, moments, critical values, entropy, distance and sequence convergences.
