On the nature of fuzz: A diatribe

Stephen E. Robertson

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1978, vol. 29, issue 6, 304-307

Abstract: The imprecision of some of the concepts which are used in formal models in information science has led to a spate of attempts to apply fuzzy set theory to aspects of information science. An analysis of the various kinds of imprecision that can occur indicates strongly that fuzzy set theory is not an appropriate formalism for these models.
