Abstract

This paper concerns with the consistent estimator for the fuzzy expectation of a random variable taking values in the space F($R^p$) of upper semicontinuous convex fuzzy subsets of $R^p$ with compact support. We introduce the concept of a fuzzy sample mean and show that the fuzzy sample mean is a strong consistent estimator for the fuzzy expectation. Some examples are given to illustrate the main result.
