Fuzzy Thesauri for and from the WWW

We revisit some “old” strategies for the automatic construction of fuzzy relations between terms. Enriching them with new insights from the mathematical machinery behind fuzzy set theory, we are able to put them in the same general framework, thereby showing that they carry the same basic idea.
