Abstract
In this paper we discuss how influence diagrams are affected by the presence of fuzziness in chance and value nodes. In this way, by modelling fuzzy-valued random variables and utilities in terms of fuzzy random variables, we analyze the statistical rules corresponding to the affected value-preserving transformations, namely: chance node removal and decision node removal. Some supporting results on fuzzy random variables introduced in this paper will provide us with the required mathematical tool to formalize the new statistical rules. Finally, an example is included to illustrate the study in the paper.
