Abstract

Buckley and Eslami (2003) introduced a discrete distribution, namely Fuzzy Binomial distribution, that is intended to suit situations wherein impreciseness and randomness coexist. Using the approach of Liu (2008), a hybrid (combination of imprecision and randomness) version of Binomial distribution is developed. With the help of genetic algorithms the process of computing the chance distributions, expectation and variance of the distribution that is developed in this paper are illustrated. Illustrative examples are given to justify the usefulness of the distribution.
