Abstract: 

In order to deal with indeterminacy data involving uncertainty and randomness, uncertain random variable is investigated by many scholars. As an extension of distance between uncertain variables, the definition of distance between uncertain random variables is proposed in this paper. Then, some formulas are provided to calculate distances between particular types of uncertain random variables

Keywords: 

uncertainty theory; uncertain random variable; chance measure; distance.
