Abstract :
A comparison of Bayesian and fuzzy classifiers requires a framework in which a fuzzy set can be related to a probability distribution. This study describes such a framework in which the Bayesian classifier corresponds to a particular choice of the fuzzy classifier. The proposed framework and related concepts is illustrated on a specific classification problem on a well known data set.
