- Abstract:
-
The concept lattice plays a crucial role in formal concept analysis, which describes essential object relations and attributes and illustrates the relation between generalization and specialization. Therefore, the development of effective methods for generating a concept lattice has been an important research topic. Based on the relational matrix of formal context, the rows and columns of the formal context are scanned to identify the full matrix. In this study, we define the concept of the greatest full matrix, and we prove that the greatest full matrix is a necessary and sufficient condition for the concept matrix. We also propose and theoretically demonstrate a concept-lattice generation algorithm based on the greatest full matrix. Finally, we provide an example to illustrate the rationality and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
