The problem of defuzzification is examined in this paper from a broader perspective as a special way of dealing with the general problem of
retranslation. The paper includes an overview of different formulations of the problem of defuzzification,as well as an overview of methods that
have been suggested in the literature for dealing with the problem. Our own approach todefuzzification, which is described in the paper in more
details, is based on relevant measures of uncertainty-based information. This paper is a companion to our recent paper that addresses thegeneral
problem of retranslation in computing with perception (Saneifard 2011). Another application of this defuzzification noticed in end of article.
