Conceptual Exploration
Bernhard Ganter, Obiedkov S.
This is the first textbook on attribute exploration, its theory, its algorithms for applications, and some of its many possible generalizations. Attribute exploration is useful for acquiring structured knowledge through an interactive process, by asking queries to an expert. Generalizations that handle incomplete, faulty, or imprecise data are discussed, but the focus lies on knowledge extraction from a reliable information source.
The method is based on Formal Concept Analysis, a mathematical theory of concepts and concept hierarchies, and uses its expressive diagrams. The presentation is self-contained. It provides an introduction to Formal Concept Analysis with emphasis on its ability to derive algebraic structures from qualitative data, which can be represented in meaningful and precise graphics.

Manual assessment of soybean yield components, such as pod number, is laborious, time-consuming, and subjective. Existing computer-vision approaches based on object detection or instance segmentation perform poorly on close-range RGB imagery of soybean canopies due to severe occlusions, ambiguous plant boundaries, and the high cost of bounding-box annotation. To address these challenges, we propose a ...

We consider the macroscopic limit for the space-time density fluctuations in the open symmetric simple exclusion in the quasi-static scaling limit. We prove that the distribution of these fluctuations converge to a gaussian space-time field that is delta correlated in time but with long-range correlations in space. ...

We study the celebrated Shiryaev-Wonham filter (Wonham, W.M., in J. Soc. Ind. Appl. Math. 347–369, 1964) in its historical setup, where the hidden Markov jump process has two states. We are interested in the weak noise regime for the observation equation. Interestingly, this becomes a strong noise regime for the filtering equations. Earlier results of ...

В условиях роста стоимости энергоресурсов и необходимости повышения энергоэффективности производственных процессов особую актуальность приобретает задача оптимизации энергопотребления промышленных предприятий. В данной работе рассматривается подход к управлению энергозатратами машиностроительного предприятия на основе методов многокритериальной оптимизации. Постановка задачи включает несколько целевых функций: минимизацию энергопотребления, минимизацию стоимости электроэнергии с учётом тарифных ограничений и максимизацию производственной эффективности. Для решения ...

In this paper, we present explicit formulas for the inverse and determinant in geometric (Clifford) algebras over vector spaces of dimension n = 7. The derivation of these formulas is made possible by generalizing the concept of conjugation to basis conjugation operations. We further develop a general method for constructing such formulas over odd-dimensional spaces ...

In this work we study the applicability of Quasi-Cyclic Subfield Subcodes of Dual Elliptic (QC-SSDE) codes for integration into code-based cryptographic schemes. Detailed algorithms are provided for constructing parity-check matrices as well as block-circulant parity-check matrices for this family of codes, accompanied by empirical results that enable the construction of QC-SSDE codes with predetermined dimensions. ...

Информационные системы формируют большие объёмы событийных журналов, которые используются для анализа работы приложений и сервисов. При этом события могут поступать в аналитический контур позже момента их фактического возникновения и не в исходном порядке. Такая рассинхронизация приводит к ошибкам при построении агрегированных временных показателей, а регулярный полный пересчёт многомерного аналитического куба требует значительных вычислительных затрат. Целью ...

Polarization of opinions in the group: a modeling algorithm considering the dynamics of social bonds
Chebotarev V., Andreyuk D., Elizarova Anastasiya et al., Procedia Computer Science 2022 Vol. 213 No. C P. 596–601
The dynamics of opinion in a group are of interest for a number of practical purposes. In particular, consensus helps and polarization of opinions hinders cohesive teamwork. Existing approaches for modeling opinion dynamics mostly do not take into account the dynamism of social relations in a group. This paper proposes an algorithm and a program ...

Decision trees and their ensemble extensions, such as random forests, are widely used as classification models due to their simplicity and interpretability. However, in many real-world tasks where class labels overlap in the feature space, standard decision trees rely on hard splits that create fragile decision boundaries. In these regions, small perturbations in the input ...

Graphons are measurable functions used to describe the asymptotic behavior of convergent graph families. Originally motivated by problems in combinatorics and graph theory, graphons have found numerous applications in the modeling and analysis of dynamical processes on networks. In this work, we use graphons to formulate the Ising model on convergent graph sequences, which include ...

This paper dates back to the asymptotic solutions of Rota’s problem on the size of maximum antichain in the set partition lattice by Canfield and Harper and others. The knowledge of asymptotic coefficients could pave the way to the asymptotic solutions of such problems as (maximal) antichain counting in partition lattices. In addition to our ...

This paper introduces cooperative games with transferable utilities and fuzzy characteristic functions on concept lattices. While previous works have independently addressed games with fuzzy payoffs and games restricted to structured coalition systems such as lattices, our approach combines both perspectives. We consider cooperative settings where coalition formation is constrained by a concept lattice structure, and ...

The linguistic applications of the Lambek calculus suggest its semantics over algebras of formal languages. A straightforward approach to construct such semantics indeed yields a brilliant completeness theorem (Pentus 1995, Ann. Pure Appl. Logic, 75, 179–213). However, extending the calculus with extra operations ruins completeness. In order to mitigate this issue, Wurm (2017, J. Logic Lang. Inf., ...

Set partitions and partition lattices are well-known objects in combinatorics and play an important role as a search space in many applied problems including ensemble clustering. Searching for antichains in such lattices is similar to that of in Boolean lattices. Counting the number of antichains in Boolean lattices is known as the Dedekind problem. In ...
