Bertoluzza et al.'s metric as a basis for analyzing fuzzy data

Abstract

Since Bertoluzza et al.’s metric between fuzzy numbers has been introduced, several studies involving it have been developed. Some of these studies concern equivalent expressions for the metric which are useful for either theoretical, practical or simulation purposes. Other studies refer to the potentiality of Bertoluzza et al.’s metric to establish statistical methods for the analysis of fuzzy data. This paper shortly reviews such studies and examine part of the scientific impact of the metric
