APPLICATION OF FUZZY INTEGRALS IN ECONOMIC MODELING: THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL APPROACHES
Keywords:
Fuzzy integrals, economic modeling, Choquet integral, Sugeno integral, uncertainty, decision-making, financial risk, economic forecasting, fuzzy logic, fuzzy measures.Abstract
Fuzzy integrals have emerged as a powerful tool in economic modeling, providing researchers with the ability to account for uncertainty and subjectivity in decision-making processes. This article analyzes the application of fuzzy integrals in economics, their theoretical foundations, methodology, and empirical studies. A comparison with traditional integral methods reveals the advantages of fuzzy integrals in economic forecasting and risk assessment. An applied example is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of fuzzy integrals in economic decision-making.
