Abstract
This chapter takes real interval [a, b] as a general range of numerical feature values and uses flexible clustering to obtain the corresponding flexible classes and flexible concepts (flexible linguistic values), thus simulating and revealing the objective basis, formation principle, and cause of flexible concepts, and then establishing the mathematical models of flexible concepts, and deriving their general expressions. Besides, it distinguishes between the flexible attributive concept and the flexible entity concept and discusses pseudo-flexible linguistic values.
