"This monograph introduces fuzzy elementary statistics based on crisp (non-fuzzy) data. In the introductory chapters the book presents a survey of fuzzy sets including fuzzy arithmetic and fuzzy functions. The book develops fuzzy estimation and demonstrates the construction of fuzzy estimators for various important and special cases of variance, mean and distribution functions. It is shown how to use fuzzy estimators in hypothesis testing and regression, which leads to a comprehensive presentation of fuzzy hypothesis testing and fuzzy regression as well as a fuzzy prediction."--Jacket.
