Abstract

The article deals with a fazzy variant of P. Martin-Löf ’s intuitionistic type theory. It presents the overview
of fuzzy type theory rules and an example of its application to the analysis of the persuasiveness of argumentation. In
the latter, the truth values of fuzzy logic are interpreted as degrees of persuasiveness of statements and arguments. The
formalization is implemented in the proof assistant Agda.
