Contextual Implications between Attributes and Some Representation Properties for Finite Lattices

In the starting paper on Formal Concept Analysis (see WILLE (1982)), it is claimed that the aim of this young discipline is to ”Restructure Lattice Theory”, using an approach which ”goes back to the origin of the lattice concept in the nineteenth-century attempts to formalize logic, where a fundamental step was a reduction of a concept to its ”extent”. We propose to make the reduction less abstract by retaining in some measure ”the intent” of a concept”.
