description Fog computing is one of the emerging forms of cloud computing which aims to satisfy the ever-increasing computation demands of the mobile applications. Effective offloading of tasks leads to increased efficiency of the fog network, but at the same time it suffers from various uncertainty issues with respect to task demands, fog node capabilities, information asymmetry, missing information, low trust, transaction failures, and so on. Several machine learning techniques have been proposed for the task offloading in fog environments, but they lack efficiency. In this paper, a novel uncertainty proof Type-2-Soft-Set (T2SS) enabled apprenticeship learning based task offloading framework is proposed which formulates the optimal task offloading policies. The performance of the proposed T2SS based apprenticeship learning is compared and found to be better than Q-learning and State-Action-Reward-State-Action (SARSA) learning techniques with respect to performance parameters such as total execution time, throughput, learning rate, and response time.
