CONCEPT SIMILARITY IN FUZZY FORMAL CONCEPT ANALYSIS FOR SEMANTIC WEB

    This paper presents a method for evaluating concept similarity within Fuzzy Formal Concept Analysis. In the perspective of developing the Semantic Web, such a method can be helpful when the digital resources found on the Internet cannot be treated equally and the integration of fuzzy data becomes fundamental for the search and discovery of information in the Web.
