In the analysis of relations among the elements of two sets it is usual to obtain different values depending on the point of view from which these relations are measured. The main goal of the paper is the modelization of these situations by means of a generalization of the L-fuzzy concept analysis called L-fuzzy bicontext. We study the L-fuzzy concepts of these L-fuzzy bicontexts obtaining some interesting results. Specifically, we will be able to classify the biconcepts of the L-fuzzy bicontext. Finally, a practical case is developed using this new tool.

In some cases, the relationship between an object set X and an attribute set Y is set up by means of a fuzzy context sequence. A particular case of this situation appears when we want to study the evolution of an L-fuzzy context in time. In this work, we analyze these situations. First we introduce the fuzzy context sequence definition and remind the main results about OWA operators. With the aid of these operators, we propose an exhaustive study of the different contexts values of the sequence using some new relations. In the second part, we also study the fuzzy context sequences establishing tendencies and temporal patterns. Finally, we illustrate all the results by means of examples.

Linking mathematical morphology and L-fuzzy concepts

In this paper we study the relation between L-fuzzy morphology and L-fuzzy concepts over complete lattices. In particular, we show how the erosion and dilation operators of the former can be understood in terms of the derivation operators of the latter, even when the set of objects is different from the set of attributes.

Application of the L-fuzzy concept analysis in the morphological image and signal processing
(Springer International Publishing, 2014) Alcalde, Cristina; Burusco Juandeaburre, Ana; Fuentes González, Ramón; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
In this work we are going to set up a new relationship between the L-fuzzy Concept Analysis and the Fuzzy Mathematical Morphology. Specifically we prove that the problem of finding fuzzy images or signals that remain invariant under a fuzzy morphological opening or under a fuzzy morphological closing, is equal to the problem of finding the L-fuzzy concepts of some L-fuzzy context. Moreover, since the Formal Concept Analysis and the Mathematical Morphology are the particular cases of the fuzzy ones, the showed result has also an interpretation for binary images or signals.

Concept lattices associated with interval-valued L-fuzzy contexts
(Institute of Biophysics and Biomedical Engineering, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, 1995) Burusco Juandeaburre, Ana; Fuentes González, Ramón; Automática y Computación; Automatika eta Konputazioa
In 1882 Wille published the paper titled Restructuring lattice theory: an approach based on hierarchies of concepts, where he developed a new theory called formal concept theory. In that paper he analyzes 0/1 relations between the object and attribute sets. Applying the L-fuzzy set theory to Wille’s results, we have developed the L-fuzzy concept theory dealing with L-fuzzy relations inside 0/1 relations. The final purpose of our theory is knowledge acquisition and classification. Taking as departure point the L-fuzzy concept theory, in this paper we study contexts defined by interval-valued L-fuzzy relations between the object and attribute sets. We give a new definition of L-fuzzy concept valid for this case and analyze the structure of the L-fuzzy concept set. We apply these results to a medical example.
