FuzzyResampling - Resampling Methods for Triangular and Trapezoidal Fuzzy Numbers
The classical (i.e. Efron's, see Efron and Tibshirani
(1994, ISBN:978-0412042317) "An Introduction to the Bootstrap")
bootstrap is widely used for both the real (i.e. "crisp") and
fuzzy data. The main aim of the algorithms implemented in this
package is to overcome a problem with repetition of a few
distinct values and to create fuzzy numbers, which are
"similar" (but not the same) to values from the initial sample.
To do this, different characteristics of triangular/trapezoidal
numbers are kept (like the value, the ambiguity, etc., see

(2019) <doi:10.1007/s00500-018-3251-5>). Some additional
procedures related to these resampling methods are also
provided, like calculation of the Bertoluzza et al.'s distance
(aka the mid/spread distance, see Bertoluzza et al. (1995) "On
a new class of distances between fuzzy numbers") and estimation
of the p-value of the one- and two- sample bootstrapped test
for the mean (see Lubiano et al. (2016,
<doi:10.1016/j.ejor.2015.11.016>)). Additionally, there are
procedures which randomly generate trapezoidal fuzzy numbers
using some well-known statistical distributions.
