The Sixth International Conference on
Concept Lattices and Their Applications
will be held in:
Olomouc, Czech Republic
October 21-23, 2008
CLA 2008 is jointly organized by Palacky University, Olomouc, Czech
Republic and State University of New York at Binghamton, USA
What is CLA?
CLA is an international conference dedicated to formal concept
analysis (FCA) and areas closely related to FCA such as data mining,
information retrieval, knowledge management, data and knowledge
engineering, logic, algebra and lattice theory. CLA provides a forum
for researchers, practitioners, and students. The program of CLA
consists of invited plenary talks, regular talks, and poster sessions.
Papers in all areas relevant to theory and applications of FCA are
solicited.
Those areas include but are not restricted to:
* foundations,
* concept lattices and related structures,
* attribute implications and data dependencies,
* algorithms,
* visualization,
* data preprocessing,
* redundancy and dimensionality reduction,
* information retrieval,
* classification,
* clustering,
* association rules and other data dependencies,
* ontologies,
* applications.
All papers will be judged based on their technical merits,
originality, relevance to areas of interest, and presentation
clarity. Papers should describe original work that has not been
published before, is not under review elsewhere, and will not be
submitted elsewhere during CLA 2008's review period. Selected papers
accepted to CLA 2008 will be invited to further revise and extend
their work in a special issue of a well-established journal (details
will come soon).
