Abstract:Based on the construction of formal concepts and the constitution of formal contexts, the inherent connections between different concept lattices are explored from the perspective of three-way decisions. The comparison of the concept lattices in classical formal context and incomplete formal context, as well as in fuzzy formal context and intuitionistic fuzzy formal context, is given, respectively. Then, the important value of three-way decisions in concept lattice theory is shown. Compared with the concept lattices in classical formal context and fuzzy formal context, the concept lattices in incomplete formal context and intuitionistic fuzzy formal context can reflect the idea of three-way decisions, and they have advantages of small data storage requirement, concise attribute reduction, etc.
