Abstract

We present a possibility for coordinatizing many-valued contexts and their concept lattices, i.e. we investigate when an algebra (in the sense of universal algebra) can be assigned to the object set of a many-valued context such that the extents can be described by the congruence classes of the algebra. Since congruence class spaces have a natural geometric nature the outlined approach can be interpreted as a geometric representation of concept lattices.
