ICFCA 2013 – First Call for Papers
11th International Conference on Formal Concept Analysis
May 21-24, 2013, Dresden, Germany
http://www.math.tu-dresden.de/icfca13/
Formal Concept Analysis emerged in the 1980’s from attempts to
restructure lattice
theory in order to promote better communication between lattice
theorists and potential
users of lattice theory. Since its early years, Formal Concept
Analysis has developed
into a research field in its own right with a thriving theoretical
community and a rapidly
expanding range of applications in information and knowledge
processing including visualization,
data analysis (mining) and knowledge management.
ICFCA aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working on
theoretical or
applied aspects of Formal Concept Analysis within major related areas
such as Mathematics
and Computer and Information Sciences and their diverse applications to fields
like Software Engineering, Linguistics, Life and Social Sciences, etc.
Topics
Main topics include, but are not limited to:
FCA theory
Lattice Theory
Lattice Drawing
Philosophical Foundations
FCA and Logic
Conceptual Knowledge
Concept Graphs
FCA and Data Mining
FCA and Learning
Association Rules and Pattern Mining
Analysis of Social Networks
Data Mining on Web 2.0 and the Semantic Web
Algorithms and Complexity Theory
FCA and Software Engineering
Biclustering and n-relational clustering
Other FCA applications
Submissions
We invite scientific publications on theory and applications of Formal
Concept Analysis.
Papers of up to sixteen pages may be submitted in PDF or Postscript
format. For each
paper, an abstract must be submitted by December 10, 2012. The
submission is to be
done via the conference EasyChair account at
https://www.easychair.org/account/
signin.cgi?conf=icfca2013. Authors are requested to follow the
formatting instructions
for the Springer LNCS style, see
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.
Accepted papers are expected to be presented at the conference,
therefore at least one author
per paper has to register timely. All submissions will be refereed,
and the conference
proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS/LNAI series.
