Abstract

In this paper we define and analyze stability of a formal concept. A stability index is based on the idea of a dependency in a dataset that can be reconstructed from different parts of the dataset. This idea, underlying various methods of estimating scientific hypotheses, is used here for estimating concept-based hypotheses. Combinatorial properties of stability indices, algorithmic comlpexity of their computation, as well as their dynamics with arrival of new examples are studied.
