An Interpretation of the Fuzzy Measure Associated with Choquet Calculus for a HIV Transference Model

Abstract

This paper presents two dynamics that describe the transference between the classes of symptomatic and asymptomatic of an HIV-seropositive population. These models can be formulated using Choquet calculus where the underlying fuzzy measure is intrisically connected with the phenomena, and that is the main focus of this article. In particular, the fuzzy measures associated with Choquet calculus are obtained from the transference rates in both cases: With or without antiretroviral treatment.
