Abstract

Practically all measurement processes end up in making a decision, according to the result of a comparison between the measurement result and another given value, either a threshold or another measurement result. In the simplest situation, when the measurement result has to be compared with a threshold and the measurement uncertainty is taken into account by representing the measurement result with a random-fuzzy variable (RFV), this comparison is performed between an RFV and a scalar value. In more complicated situations, when the measurement result has to be compared with another measurement value, the comparison is performed between two RFVs.
