A Logical Approach to Data-Driven Classification

Abstract: Abstract. We present a flexible approach for extracting hierarchical classifications from data, which employs the logic of affirmative assertions. The basic observation is that each set of rules induced by the data canonically determines a classificational hierarchy. We give a characterization of how the chosen rule type affects the structure of the induced hierarchy. Moreover, we show how our approach is related to Formal Concept Analysis. The framework is then applied to the induction of hierarchical classif… Show more

“…The term AOC-poset was introduced in [29,27]. AOC-posets were also used in applications of FCA to non-monotonic reasoning and domain theory [19], and to produce classifications from linguistic data [26,29,27], because of their capability to structure knowledge. Specific parts of the AOC-poset -mainly attribute-conceptswere used in several works, including refactoring of a class hierarchy (e.g.…”

“…However, the concept lattice may have an exponential size in the number of objects or attributes. A canonical sub-order of the lattice is the so-called AOC-poset for Attribute/Object Concept poset (the term was coined in [29,27]), which is of much smaller size. Thus, it can be recommended in some specific applications, as it contains all the relevant information for retrieving all formal concepts.…”

“…Osswald and Petersen [24,25] study an approach to encoding knowledge in order structures which is inspired from linguistics. They obtain a framework which is more flexible than formal concept analysis, and appears to be compatible with our results in Section 5 and [7].…”

“…From this perspective, it should be investigated under which conditions a context satisfies the hypotheses of Theorem 3. It would also be important to relate this result to those of [21], where domain theory and formal concept analysis are being related by means of Chu space theory, and [24,25], where a general approach encompassing formal concept analysis is described for obtaining order structures carrying hierarchical knowledge.…”
