Abstract
The notion of fuzzy set cardinality is examined. Zadeh´s suggested measure of fuzzy cardinality, the sigma-count, is adopted and shown to generalize classical counting measure. This allows many combinatorial structures and counting techniques to be fuzzified, and hence used in knowledge representation and pattern recognition models. A fuzzy set review is found in the Appendix.
