A Knowledge Acquisition Model Based On Formal Concept Analysis In Complex Information Systems

Normally, in some complex information systems, the binary relation on domain of any attribute is just a kind of ordinary binary, which does not meet some common properties such as reflexivity, transitivity or symmetry. In view of the above-mentioned facts this paper attempts to employ FCA(Formal Concept Analysis), proposes a rough set model based on FCA, in which equivalence relations, dominance relations, similarity relations(or tolerance relations) and neighborhood relations on universe are expanded to general binary relations and problems in rough set theory are discussed based on FCA. Particularly, from the above description of complex information systems, we can see that the relation in domain of any attribute may be extremely complex, which often leads to high time complexity and space complexity in the process of knowledge acquisition. For above reason this paper introduces granular computing(GrC), which can effectively reduce the complexity to a certain extent.
