Abstract
We consider the problem of automatic classification of text documents, in particular, scientific abstracts and use two types of classifiers: ordinal and numerical. For the first type we use a fuzzy extension of the Borda voting method while for the second type we use a fuzzy Borda method in combination with the semantic grading.
