Abstract
Abstract Some results of classical statistical decision theory are generalized by means of the theory of fuzzy sets. The concepts of an admissible decision in the restricted sense, an admissible decision in the broad sense, a Bayes decision in the restricted sense, and a Bayes decision in the broad sense are introduced. It is proved that any Bayes decision in the broad sense with positive prior discrete density is admissible in the restricted sense. The class of Bayes decisions is shown to be complete under certain conditions on the loss function. Problems with a finite set of possible states are considered.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this journal is to provide the latest information on the development of discrete mathematics in the former USSR to a world-wide readership. The journal will contain papers from the Russian-language journal Diskretnaya Matematika, the only journal of the Russian Academy of Sciences devoted to this field of mathematics. Discrete Mathematics and Applications will cover various subjects in the fields such as combinatorial analysis, graph theory, functional systems theory, cryptology, coding, probabilistic problems of discrete mathematics, algorithms and their complexity, combinatorial and computational problems of number theory and of algebra.
