#56. Old paper by Glen Meeden

Meeden co-authored the paper on fuzzy p-values which sadly seems to have made little or no impact in the fuzzy statistics community.

In this recent paper, he discusses his views on probability-possibility `translation'. In spite of the title, I say so because I think he means a possibility distribution when he says 'a fuzzy set'.

Meeden seems to be unaware of the literature in this topic, but anyway his approach has a rather Bayesian flavour by making it a loss-driven decision, and that's nice (although, a criticism in point is that his loss functions lack a fuzzy interpretation).
