A fuzzy concept is a kind of concept of which the boundaries of application can vary considerably according to context or conditions, instead of being fixed once and for all. This means the concept is vague in some way, lacking a fixed, precise meaning, without however being unclear or meaningless altogether. It has a definite meaning, which can be made more precise only through further elaboration and specification - including a closer definition of the context in which the concept is used. The study of the characteristics of fuzzy concepts and fuzzy language is called fuzzy semantics. The inverse of a "fuzzy concept" is a "crisp concept" (i.e. a precise concept).

  • Une notion à contenu variable (anglais : fuzzy concept) est un concept flou qui présente plus d'une solution interprétative possible dans l'interprétation d'un texte. Il s'agit d'un concept à texture ouverte qui présente un noyau de sens clair sur lequel il y a consensus sur le sens ainsi qu'une zone de pénombre sur laquelle il n'y a pas de consensus, d'après le philosophe du droit H.L.A. Hart. (fr)
