Abstract

Stimulated by Zadeh's paper (Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference,2002, 105, 233--264), we will try to consider a perceptive analysis of the optimal stopping problem. In this paper, the fuzzy perception value of the expectation of the optimal stopped reward is characterized and calculated by a new recursive equation. Also, a numerical example described by triangular fuzzy numbers is given.
