Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery

Abstract

The proceedings contain 34 papers. The topics discussed include: protoconcept graphs: the lattice of conceptual contents; a mathematical model for TOSCANA-systems: conceptual data systems; BLID: an application of logical information systems to bioinformatics; concept lattices for information visualization: can novices read line-diagrams?; browsing search results via formal concept analysis: automatic selection of attributes; numerical analysis in conceptual systems with ToscanaJ; congruences of finite distributive concept algebras; agreement contexts in formal concept analysis; conceptual knowledge processing with formal concept analysis and ontologies; a first step towards protoconcept exploration; unlocking the semantics of Roget's thesaurus using formal concept analysis; FCA in knowledge technologies: experiences and opportunities; a comparative study of FCA-based supervised classification algorithms; and predicate invention and the revision of first-order concept lattices.
