Formal concept analysis in information science
Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is a method for data analysis, knowledge representation and information management that is widely unknown among information scientists in the USA even though this technology has a significant potential for applications. FCA was invented by Rudolf Wille in the early 80s (Wille, 1982). For the first 10 years, FCA was developed mainly by a small group of researchers a...
متن کاملFormal Concept Analysis for Information Retrieval
In this paper we describe a mechanism to improve Information Retrieval (IR) on the web. The method is based on Formal Concepts Analysis (FCA) that it is makes semantical relations during the queries, and allows a reorganizing, in the shape of a lattice of concepts, the answers provided by a search engine. We proposed for the IR an incremental algorithm based on Galois lattice. This algorithm al...
متن کاملFormal Concept Analysis for Business Information Systems
In this paper, we present a methodology based on formal concept analysis (FCA) for the information system model verification. We show that FCA can be useful for understanding conceptual model topology and it can be used to improve the structure of the conceptual model. IBM's Information Framework (IFW) Financial Services Data Model (FSDM) has been used for the present research. By using FSDM, w...
متن کاملManaging Information Fusion with Formal Concept Analysis
The main problem addressed in this paper is the merging of numerical information provided by several sources (databases, experts...). Merging pieces of information into an interpretable and useful format is a tricky task even when an information fusion method is chosen. Fusion results may not be in suitable form for being used in decision analysis. This is generally due to the fact that informa...
متن کاملArbitrary Relations in Formal Concept Analysis and Logical Information Systems
A logical view of formal concept analysis considers attributes of a formal context as unary predicates. In a first part, we propose an augmented definition that handles binary relations between objects. A Galois connection is defined on augmented contexts. It represents concept inheritance as usual, but also relations between concepts. As usual, labeling operators are also defined. In particula...
