Abstract

The theory of rough sets and formal concept analysis are compared in a common framework based on formal contexts. Different concept lattices can be constructed. Formal concept analysis focuses on concepts that are definable by conjuctions of properties, rough set theory focuses on concepts that are definable by disjunctions of properties. They produce different types of rules summarizing knowledge embedded in data.
