In many real-life situations, we have several types of uncertainty: measurement uncertainty can lead to probabilistic and/or interval uncertainty, expert estimates come with interval and/or fuzzy uncertainty, etc. In many situations, in addition to measurement uncertainty, we have prior knowledge coming from prior data processing, prior knowledge coming from prior interval constraints. In this paper, on the example of the seismic inverse problem, we show how to combine these different types of uncertainty.
