Special Session on Formal concept analysis and uncertainty
=================================================
A special session at the 19th International Conference on Information Processing and Management of Uncertainty in Knowledge-Based Systems, IPMU 2022, that will be held in Milan (Italy) on July 11th – 15th.

Conference website: https://ipmu2022.disco.unimib.it/

Objectives and topics
=================
Over the last few years, research on extending FCA theory to deal with imprecise and incomplete information has advanced significantly: Fuzzy Formal Conceptual Analysis, FCA with granular computation, interval-valued, possibility theory, triadic FCA and others aim to deal with uncertainty and vagueness in data.

This session aims to gather a number of researchers concerning FCA and imprecision in data management. The topics include but not are limited to:
- Theoretical foundations in FCA
- Logic and fuzzy logic in FCA
- Attribute implications, association rules and data dependencies
- Redundancy and dimensionality reduction
- Knowledge discovery and data analysis
- Conceptual Exploration
- Ontologies
- Algorithms and applications

Publication
=========
The conference proceedings will be published in Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) with Springer. CCIS is abstracted/indexed in DBLP, Google Scholar, EI-Compendex, Mathematical Reviews, SCImago, Scopus. CCIS volumes will also be submitted for inclusion in ISI Proceedings (Web-of-Science).

Submissions
===========
The submission must be written in English using the LaTeX2e Springer class file (LNCS/CCIS one-column page format). The length of submission is at most 12 pages in this format and may be submitted in PDF via the EasyChair system at:
