Second Call for Papers
ICFCA 2010
8th International Conference on Formal Concept Analysis
March 15 - 18, 2010, Agadir, Morocco
http://w3.uqo.ca/icfca10
=========================
=========================
=========================
=====
Formal Concept Analysis emerged in the 1980's from attempts to restructure
lattice theory to promote better communication between lattice theorists
and potential users of lattice theory. Since then Formal Concept Analysis
has developed into a growing research field in its own right with a
thriving theoretical community and an increasing number of applications in
information and knowledge processing including vizualisation, data mining
and analysis, and knowledge management.
ICFCA is a major forum where researchers from various fields like
mathematics, computer science, life sciences, linguistics and social
sciences meet and discuss latest advances in Formal Concept Analysis and
its applications in various application domains. We invite highquality
submissions on both theoretical foundations of FCA and its applications in
social sciences, life sciences, software engineering, linguistics, social
networks and Web 2.0.
Possible topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- FCA theory
- Lattice Theory
- Lattice Drawing
- FCA and Logic
- FCA algorithms
- Conceptual Knowledge Processing
- Analysis of Social Networks
- Data Mining in Web 2.0
- FCA and Software Engineering
- Philosophical Foundations
- Concept Graphs
- Data Analysis
- FCA in Data Mining
- Association Rules
