A FUZZY GAME WITH "NATURE" AS A MODEL FOR MAKING ECONOMIC DECISIONS
Games with "nature" are one of the variants of mathematical formalization of the problem of economic decision-making. Classical methods that focus on point-based numerical estimates of the consequences of possible decisions do not fully reflect the uncertainties that occur in real decision-making processes. One of the possible ways to solve this problem is to use the apparatus of fuzzy set theory. We propose a method for finding the best solution in conditions where the uncertainties of the source data are represented by fuzzy linguistic statements formalized by fuzzy sets. In this case, the integral estimation of possible consequences is obtained not by folding the estimates corresponding to individual states of the external environment, in which information loss is possible, but by constructing an equivalent fuzzy set. The proposed method does not require complex mathematical transformations and can easily be implemented programmatically as a component of the decision support system.
