  • This paper applies the concepts of fuzzifying functions to the probability density function of a random variable and introduce a fuzzifying probability to better understand the probability arising from the uncertainties of the probability density function. Using the fuzzifying probability, we derive the fuzzifying expected value and the fuzzifying variance of a random variable with the fuzzifying probability density function. Additionally, we provide examples of a fuzzifying probability density function to validate that the proposed fuzzy concepts generalize crisp expected value and variance in probability theory.
