In this paper we review the main intermediate forms proposed in text mining, and we brie∞y study some fuzzy counterparts. The concept of intermediate form applies to any knowledge representation employed to represent in a structured way the semantic content of a text corpus. Intermediate forms play a central role in the text mining process since it is necessary to transform plain text into a form in order to apply mining techniques. Since the semantics of text use to be imprecise, the use of fuzzy intermediate forms seems to be a natural solution in many cases. We discuss about fuzzy intermediate forms and the corresponding fuzzy text mining techniques that may be applicable on them.
