Temporal Concept Analysis

چکیده
This paper introduces Temporal Concept Analysis (TCA) as the theory of temporal phenomena described with tools of Formal Concept Analysis (FCA). The basic notion in TCA is that of a Conceptual Time System introduced by the author [42,45] such that state spaces and phase spaces can be defined as concept lattices which clearly represent the meaning of states with respect to the chosen time description. In this paper two closely related types of conceptual time systems are introduced, namely 'conceptual time systems with parts' and 'conceptual time systems with actual objects'. The latter yields a generalization of classical systems with many similar subsystems or particles. Some industrial and scientific applications of conceptual movies of subsystems (particles) are presented.

Spatio-temporal analysis of the covid-19 impacts on the using Chicago urban shared bicycles by tensor-based approach
Cycling is a phenomenon in urban transportation that has the ability to allocate a specific location at any moment in time. Accordingly, spatial analysis of bicycle trips can be accompanied by temporal analysis. The use of a GIS environment is commonly recommended to display the extent of the phenomenon's spatial changes. However, in order to apply and display changes over time, it will requir...
متن کاملTemporal Concept Analysis Explained by Examples
The purpose of this paper is to show by examples the advantages of Temporal Concept Analysis (TCA) the theory of temporal phenomena described with tools of Formal Concept Analysis (FCA). TCA is developed in three main branches: first the branch of Conceptual Time Systems with actual Objects and a Time relation (CTSOTs) where each temporal object is at each time granule at exactly one place; tha...
متن کاملTemporal Classes and OWL
Temporal class as a design primitive for knowledge engineering allows for natural representation of evolving concepts of a domain. The paper proposes arguments to employ temporal entities (classes, axioms, ontologies) as first-class citizens in the Semantic Web applications. The paper presents an informal description of one temporal extension of a subset of OWL to deal with temporal classes — O...

The purpose of this paper is to offer the equitable method for ranking Decision Making Units(DMUs) based on the Dynamic Data Envelopment Analysis (DDEA) concept, where quasi-fixed inputs or intermediate products are the source of inter-temporal dependence between consecutive periods. In fact, this paper originally makes the use of an approach extending the ranking of DMUs in DEA by Khodabakhsh...
