Expanded Concept Lattice Based on Granular Computing

Abstract:

By introducing granular computing into concept lattice, and integrating similarity measure model and structure information of concept lattice, the paper proposes an expanded concept lattice model based on granular computing. It can help to expand intent and extent of classical concept, and also can effectively reduce the scale of concepts to some extent. The model is not only a useful attempt and exploration for the fusion of these two theories, but also an effective means of expanding the classical concept lattice.
