Summary:
Recently, the parameter estimations for normal fuzzy variables in the Nahmias' sense was studied by Cai [4]. These estimates were also studied for general $T$-related, but not necessarily normal fuzzy variables by Hong [10] In this paper, we report on some properties of estimators that would appear to be desirable, including unbiasedness. We also consider asymptotic or “large-sample” properties of a particular type of estimator.
