adj

Definition: fluffy
Antonyms: smooth

adj

Definition: out of focus
Antonyms: clear

Defined by generalized terms. For example, although the general term ‘middle class’ can be delineated by government statisticians, there is no universally agreed definition. The concept is important in geography because, while most mathematical models use non-fuzzy logic and sets, most human and social environments work in fuzzy groupings. Fuzzy logic can be used to model such phenomena; it requires the setting of limits to each set, the ordering of the classes thereby derived, and the assigning of a central value to each set, such as an annual household income of £35 000. Fuzzy logic has been used in geography in modelling, for example, non-linear relationships, and spatial interactions, using fuzzy distances, such as ‘near’ and ‘far’.
