TL;DR
The expected interval is defined as the expectedvalue of an interval random set generated by the fuzzy number and the expected value of this number isdefined as the centre of the expected interval.
Abstract
The notions of expected interval and expected value of fuzzy number are introduced. The expected interval is defined as the expected value of an interval random set generated by the fuzzy number and the expected value of this number is defined as the centre of the expected interval. The linearity of the expected interval is studied.

Some light is shed on the debate between probability and possibility theory, and the problem of how to carry measure-theoretic notions into the field of possibility theory.

The suggested approach, which may be called Fuzzy-Numerical Simulation, allows for ascribing a precise numerical value to a fuzzy variable by generating a value of a random variable related in some way to the fuzzy variable.

The problem of proper choice from the class of interval random sets generated by some fuzzy set is considered and this problem is determined for the maximum entropy criterion.
