Abstract

Fuzzy decision making is one of important elements of fuzzy mathematics, and is extensively used in economic management, humanities, disaster prediction, etc. Fuzzy statistical decision making is based on statistical data and is introduced here into the study of countermeasures against a great earthquake. The obtained results show that it provides more information than in case of empirical decision making and could lead to higher social benefits during a serious earthquake.
