Abstract

Formal concept analysis is recognized as a good paradigm for browsing data sets. Besides browsing, update and complex data are other important aspects of information systems. To have an efficient implementation of concept-based information systems is difficult because of the diversity of complex data and the computation of conceptual structures, but essential for the scalability to real-world applications. We propose to decompose contexts into simpler and specialized components: logical context functors . We demonstrate this allows for scalable implementations, updatable ontologies, and richer navigation structures, while retaining genericity.
