Why concept lattices are large: extremal theory for generators, concepts, and VC-dimension
2017
International Journal of General Systems
We make this precise by giving an upper bound for the number of minimal generators (and thereby for the number of concepts) of contexts without contranominal scales larger than a given size. ...
A unique type of subcontexts is always present in formal contexts with many concepts: the contranominal scales. ...
Acknowledgements We want to deeply thank Bernhard Ganter for the invaluable feedback and fruitful discussions. ...

A Learnable Representation for Syntax Using Residuated Lattices
[chapter]
2011
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
We propose a representation for natural language syntax based on the theory of residuated lattices: in particular on the Galois lattice between contexts and substrings, which we call the syntactic concept ...
In this paper we define the basic algebraic properties of the syntactic concept lattice, together with a representation derived from this lattice and discuss the generative power of the formalism. ...
Categorial grammars We have shown that this concept lattice is a residuated lattice; the theory of categorial grammars is based largely on the theory of residuation [14] . ...

Formal Concept Analysis and Information Retrieval – A Survey
[chapter]
2015
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
One of the first models to be proposed as a document index for retrieval purposes was a lattice structure, decades before the introduction of Formal Concept Analysis. ...
We try to be as exhaustive as possible by reviewing the last 25 years of research as chronicles of the domain, yet we are also concise in relating works by its theoretical foundations. ...
explaining the meaning of the axis or why the documents and the query are located in the space as they are is out of the scope of this paper. ...

2022
arXiv

We also connect this result with the intrinsic violation of faithfulness and elucidate the importance of the concept of causal minimality. ...
Built upon the concept of causal faithfulness, the so-called causal discovery algorithms propose the breakdown of mutual information (MI) and conditional mutual information (CMI) into sets of variables ...
