================================================================================ ICFCA 2021 16th International Conference on Formal Concept Analysis June 29 -- July 2, 2021, Strasbourg, France Web: <icfca2021.sciencesconf.org> Mail: icfca2021@sciencesconf.org ================================================================================ * Overview Formal Concept Analysis emerged in the 1980's from attempts to restructure lattice theory in order to promote better communication between lattice theorists and potential users of lattice theory. Since its early years, Formal Concept Analysis has developed into a research field in its own right with a thriving theoretical community and a rapidly expanding range of applications in information and knowledge processing including visualization, data analysis (mining) and knowledge management and discovery. The ICFCA conference series aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners working on theoretical or applied aspects of Formal Concept Analysis within major related areas such as Mathematics and Computer and Information Sciences and their diverse applications to fields like Software Engineering, Linguistics, Life and Social Sciences, etc. * Topics Main topics of interest include, but are not limited to: ** Fundamental aspects of FCA - FCA theory - Lattice theory - Lattice drawing - Philosophical foundations - Algorithms and complexity theory ** Bridging FCA to information sciences and artificial intelligence - FCA and logic, e.g., semantic web, description logics - FCA and conceptual structures, e.g., concept graphs, knowledge spaces - FCA and data analysis, e.g., hierarchical classification, dataorganization - FCA and data mining, e.g., pattern mining - FCA and information retrieval, e.g. exploratory search, navigation,querying - FCA and machine learning, e.g., learning with hypothesis, feature selection - FCA and database theory, e.g., dependencies, rules, data cubes - FCA and software engineering - FCA and morphological mathematics ** Understanding, modelling real-world data and phenomena with FCA - Analysis of "big data" with FCA, e.g., sampling, parallel computing - Analysis of social networks and their dynamics - Applications for scientific data analysis, e.g., in biology or health care - Applications for sensors data and user interactions traces - Other FCA applications * Submission Details We invite scientific publications on theory and applications of Formal Concept Analysis. Papers of up to sixteen pages may be submitted in the PDF format via the Easychair system. Details will soon be announced on the conference website and in the CfP. * Important Dates Submission of abstract: *Junuary 18, 2021* Submission of full paper: *January 25, 2021* Notification of acceptance: March 16, 2021 Camera ready due: April 5, 2021 Conference: June 29 -- July 2, 2021 * Organization The conference will be hosted by Université de Strasbourg ** Conference Chairs Florence Le Ber, ICUBE, Université de Strasbourg, CNRS, ENGEES, France Agnès Braud, ICUBE, Université de Strasbourg, CNRS, France ** Program Chairs Aleksey Buzmakov, Hiher School of Economics, Russia Tom Hanika, KDE, Universität Kassel, Germany -- [LOGIC] mailing list http://www.dvmlg.de/mailingliste.html Archive: http://www.illc.uva.nl/LogicList/ provided by a collaboration of the DVMLG, the Maths Departments in Bonn and Hamburg, and the ILLC at the Universiteit van Amsterdam
