Flexible categorization using formal concept analysis and Dempster-Shafer theory

Artificial Intelligence 2024-12-30 v2

Abstract

The framework developed in the present paper provides a formal ground to generate and study explainable categorizations of sets of entities, based on the epistemic attitudes of individual agents or groups thereof. Based on this framework, we discuss a machine-leaning meta-algorithm for outlier detection and classification which provides local and global explanations of its results.
