Abstract.
This paper is concerned with the clustering of objects whose properties
cannot be
described by exact data. These can only be described by fuzzy sets
or by linguistic
values of previously defined linguistic variables. To cluster these
objects we use a
generalization of classic clustering methods in which instead of similarity
(dissimilarity)
of objects, used fuzzy similarity (fuzzy dissimilarity) to define the
clustering of fuzzy objects.
