    Can FCA-based Recommender System Suggest a Proper Classifier?

    The paper briefly introduces multiple classifier systems and describes a new algorithm, which improves classification accuracy by means of recommendation of a proper algorithm to an object classification. This recommendation is done assuming that a classifier is likely to predict the label of the object correctly if it has correctly classified its neighbors. The process of assigning a classifier to each object is based on Formal Concept Analysis. We explain the idea of the algorithm with a toy example and describe our first experiments with real-world datasets.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figure, 4 tables, ECAI 2014, workshop "What FCA can do for "Artifficial Intelligence

    Shapley and Banzhaf Vectors of a Formal Concept

    We propose the usage of two power indices from cooperative game theory and public choice theory for ranking attributes of closed sets, namely intents of formal concepts (or closed itemsets). The introduced indices are related to extensional concept stability and based on counting generators, especially those that contain a selected attribute. The introduction of such indices is motivated by the so-called interpretable machine learning, which supposes that we do not only have the class membership decision of a trained model for a particular object, but also a set of attributes (in the form of JSM-hypotheses or other patterns) along with individual importance of their single attributes (or more complex constituent elements). We characterise computation of Shapley and Banzhaf values of a formal concept in terms of minimal generators and their order filters, provide the reader with their properties important for computation purposes, and show experimental results
