Calculate the Weighted Expected Value of a Fuzzy Number


Description

The calculation of the so-called weighted expected value is one of possible methods to deffuzify a fuzzy number.

For w=0.5 we get the ordinary expectedValue.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'FuzzyNumber'
weightedExpectedValue(object, w=0.5, ...)

Arguments

object

a fuzzy number

...

additional arguments passed to expectedInterval

w

a single numeric value in [0,1]

Details

The weighted expected value of A is defined as EV_w(A) := (1-w) EI_L(A) + w EI_U(A), where EI is the expectedInterval.

Value

Returns a single numeric value.
