Abstract As a data visualization tool, attribute partial order structure diagram can solve the problem of user cognitive overload in formal concept analysis effectively. People often express preference information through fuzzy linguistic values in real life,and thus a large amount of fuzzy linguistic-valued data is generated. To solve the problem of attribute reduction in fuzzy linguistic environment, a layer-by-layer attribute reduction algorithm for fuzzy linguistic attribute partial order structure diagram is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the fuzzy linguistic attribute partial order structure diagram is constructed based on the fuzzy linguistic-valued formal context, and the fuzzy linguistic-valued data is embedded into the attribute partial order structure diagram. The order relation and the incomparable relation between fuzzy linguistic values are expressed by the linguistic truth-valued lattice implication algebra acting as the representation model of the fuzzy linguistic values. Secondly, the fuzzy linguistic attribute partial order structure diagram is employed and the nodes that do not form edges with the underlying nodes are searched to obtain the minimum attribute subset with the fuzzy linguistic-valued formal context discrimination ability unchanged. On the premise of ensuring the class equivalence of the fuzzy linguistic attribute partial order structure diagram, the difference attribute between the node and its child nodes is calculated, and the corresponding layer-by-layer attribute reduction model is constructed. Finally, examples and comparative experiments verify the effectiveness and practicability of the proposed method.
