Pour la description des exemples, nous utilisons un formalisme objet base sur le modele des graphes conceptuels de sowa. La recherche de regularites valides est ramenee a la recherche de sous-graphes conceptuels, donc connexes, apparaissant souvent dans les graphes decrivant les exemples et rarement dans ceux decrivant les contre-exemples. Nous proposons un algorithme qui procede en deux etapes: 1) recherche de chemins conceptuels; 2) assemblage de ces chemins pour former des arbres conceptuels. Les regularites extraites par cette methode sont ensuite structurees par l'intermediaire d'un treillis de galois, ce qui permet de batir des methodes tres interessantes de decision et d'explication des resultats. Ces algorithmes ont ete exploites dans le domaine de la biologie sur des problemes de grandes tailles

This algorithm is specially design to deal with: large amounts of objects, object linked to many other objects, noisy data.

Our work is motivated by the search of an effective algorithm allowing the extraction of rare classification rules by avoiding the generation of a large number of patterns at reduced time. Within this framework we are interested in rules of the form a 1 ∧ a 2… ∧ a n ⇒b

In this article, we outline some issues in agent interaction on the Web, which is the center point of supporting the needs of fully-realized learning GRID in the future. Of particular importance is conversation support, with its core element, communication protocols. We propose to construct communication protocols through concept learning of services generated on the Web. The proposed approach incorporates a machine learning model into a conversation environment for the induction of communication protocols.

However, this task is a thriving challenge, as graph and subgraph isomorphisms play a key role throughout the computations. Since subgraph isomorphism testing is a hard problem, subgraph miners are exponential in runtime. To alleviate the complexity issue, we propose to introduce a bias in the projection operator and instead of using the costly subgraph isomorphism projection, one can use a polynomial projection having a semantically-valid structural interpretation. This paper presents a new projection operator for graphs named AC-projection, which exhibits nice theoretical complexity properties. We study the size of the search space as well as some practical properties of the projection operator. We also introduce a novel breadth-first algorithm for frequent AC-reduced subgraphs mining. Then, we prove experimentally that we can achieve an important performance gain (pol...

These proceedings reflect the diversity of interest in concept lattices by the scientific community with papers ranging from the analysis of algorithms in data mining to teaching mathematics. CLA is structured as a triple peer-review process: conference paper, presentation and extended journal paper. 48 papers were submitted to CLA2007 and 24 papers were selected for presentation. All papers were peer reviewed by at least 3 members of the program committee with the final decision on acceptance determined from the reviews by the program chairs. Based on the presentation of the final papers, outstanding contributions from this volume will be invited to submit an extended version of their conference paper for a special volume on concept lattice applications for the International Journal of General Systems. These papers will again be peer-...

We study the size of the search space as well as some practical properties of the projection operator. We also introduce a novel breadth-first algorithm for frequent AC-reduced subgraphs mining. Then, we prove experimentally that we can achieve an important performance gain (polynomial complexity projection) without or with non-significant loss of discovered patterns in terms of quality.

However, generalizing from a set of examples or searching for regularities is a problem which has already been intensively studied in machine learning. Our work uses techniques in which generalizations are constrained by a language bias, in order to regroup similar states. Such generalizations are principally based on the properties of concept lattices. To guide the possible groupings of similar environment's states, we propose a general algebraic framework, considering the generalization of policies through a set partition of the states and using a language bias as an a priori knowledge. We give an application as an example of our approach by proposing and experimenting a bottom-up algorithm.
