Abstract: In this paper, we introduce the notion of risk-type description. The concept is strongly related to the definition of risk function, as analyzed in detail in [20]. The main difference consists in considering objects of other categories, different than those analyzed in [20]. The analysis shows relationships and differences between the two notions, both concerning the idea of risk in control.

Keywords: risk function, set theory, control variant, functional description, the concept of safety
