Abstract :
Danger is an inherently fuzzy concept. To identify dangerous situations, and be able to act accordingly, we also have to take into account the fuzzy nature of the measurement of their properties, especially their probability. We formalize here the concept of danger, and discuss some of the difficulties of making high-stakes decisions under fuzziness
