DiscontinuousFuzzyNumber-class {FuzzyNumbers}

**EXPERIMENTAL** S4 Class Representing a Fuzzy Number with Discontinuous Side Functions or Alpha-Cut Bounds

Description

Discontinuity information increase the precision of some numerical integration-based algorithms, e.g. of piecewiseLinearApproximation. It also allows for making more valid fuzzy number plots.

Slots

a1, a2, a3, a4, lower, upper, left, right:

Inherited from the FuzzyNumber class.

discontinuities.left:

nondecreasingly sorted numeric vector with elements in (0,1); discontinuity points for the left side generating function

discontinuities.right:

nondecreasingly sorted numeric vector with elements in (0,1); discontinuity points for the right side generating function

discontinuities.lower:

nondecreasingly sorted numeric vector with elements in (0,1); discontinuity points for the lower alpha-cut bound generator

discontinuities.upper:

nondecreasingly sorted numeric vector with elements in (0,1); discontinuity points for the upper alpha-cut bound generator
