A Variability-Based Framework for Interpretable Naming in Formal and Relational Concept Analysis

arXiv:2606.08477v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge extraction from symbolic data often produces abstractions that are formally defined but not immediately interpretable by users. Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) and Relational Concept Analysis (RCA) provide representative settings for this issue: they generate explicit conceptual structures, implications, and relational dependencies from object descriptions and relations. Although these structures are explainable by design, their concepts are often identified by technical labels, which limits their use as human-interpretable knowledge unit
The increasing complexity of AI-generated knowledge structures necessitates better interpretability methods, making user-friendly naming a crucial area of research.
Improving the interpretability of AI outputs accelerates the adoption and trustworthiness of advanced AI systems by making their internal logic understandable to human users.
This research focuses on making formal AI knowledge units directly accessible and understandable to humans, addressing a key bottleneck in applied AI.
