Graded implications in the framework of Fuzzy Formal Concept Analysis are used as the
knowledge guiding the recommendations. An automated engine based on fuzzy …

This paper aims to contribute to the extension of classical Formal Concept Analysis (FCA),
allowing the management of unknown information. In a preliminary paper, we define a new …

In this paper, we present a general inference system for reasoning with if-then rules. They
are defined using general lattice-theoretic notions and their semantics is defined using …

In the design of mathematical methods for a medical problem, one of the kernel issues is the
identification of symptoms and measures that could help in the diagnosis. Discovering …

There is a lack of formalism for some key foundational concepts in systems engineering.
One of the most recently acknowledged deficits is the inadequacy of systems engineering …

Formal concept analysis (FCA) is a solid mathematical framework to manage information
based on logic and lattice theory. It defines two explicit representations of the knowledge …

This work can be seen as a contribution to the area of social network analysis. By
considering Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) as the underlying formalizing tool, we use logic …

Sets of attribute implications may have a certain degree of redundancy and the notion of
basis appears as a way to characterize the implication set with less redundancy. The most …

Concepts and implications are two facets of the knowledge contained within a binary
relation between objects and attributes. Simplification logic (SL) has proved to be valuable …

We propose and evaluate a novel algorithm for computation of the Duquenne-Guigues basis
which combines Close-by-One and LinClosure algorithms. This combination enables us to …
