VL - 25 IS - 1 SE - Special Section: Best Extended Articles - WEA 2019 DO - 10.14483/23448393.15620 UR - https://revistas.udistrital.edu.co/index.php/reving/article/view/15620 SP - 38-49 AB - <p><strong>Context</strong>: This paper presents a MATLAB code implementation and the GUI (General User Interface) for fuzzy random variable generation. Based on previous theoretical results and applications, a MATLAB toolbox has been developed and tested for selected membership functions.</p><p><strong>Method</strong>: A two–step methodology was used: i) a MATLAB toolbox was implemented to be used as interface and ii) all .m functions are available to be used as normal code. The main goal is to provide graphical and code–efficient tools to users.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> The main obtained results are the MATLAB GUI and code. In addition, some experiments were ran to evaluate its capabilities and some randomness statistical tests were successfully performed.</p><p><strong>Conclusions</strong>: Satisfactory results were obtained from the implementation of the MATLAB code/toolbox. All randomness tests were accepted and all performed experiments shown stability of the toolbox even for large samples (&gt;10.000). Also, the code/toolbox are available online.</p><p><strong>Acknowledgements:</strong> The authors would like to thank to the Prof. M Sc. Miguel Melgarejo and Prof. Jos´e Jairo Soriano–Mendez sincerely for their interest and invaluable support, and a special gratefulness is given to all members of LAMIC.</p> ER -
