Fuzzy Concept Lattices with Incomplete Knowledge

  • Conference paper
Advances in Computational Intelligence (IPMU 2012)

Abstract

We study the problem of incomplete data in Formal Concept Analysis in fuzzy setting, namely the problem of constructing a concept lattice of incomplete data. We develop a simple general framework for dealing with unknown values in fuzzy logic, define incomplete fuzzy formal contexts, and present a method of constructing concept lattices of such contexts.
