In search for the possible astrophysical sources behind origination of the diverse gamma-ray bursts, cluster analyses are performed to find homogeneous groups, which discover an intermediate group other than the conventional short and long bursts. However, very recently, few studies indicate a possibility of the existence of more than three (namely five) groups. Therefore, in this paper, fuzzy clustering is conducted on the gamma-ray bursts from the final ‘Burst and Transient Source Experiment’ catalog to cross-check the significance of these new groups. Meticulous study on individual bursts based on their memberships in the fuzzy clusters confirms the previously well-known three groups against the newly found five.
