Abstract

Formal concept analysis for multi-dimensional data analysis is highlighted by examples.

Polyadic and temporal formal concept analyses are presented in general PSM framework.

The relation between OLAP (On-Line Analytical Processing) and lattices is outlined.

Computational biochemistry case studies are based on entropy criteria.

Emergent computing capabilities for Physarum systems are evaluated.

Multivariate analysis is correlated to hierarchical classes and formal concept analysis.
