On minimal sets of graded attribute implications

27 May 2014  ·  Vilem Vychodil ·

We explore the structure of non-redundant and minimal sets consisting of graded if-then rules. The rules serve as graded attribute implications in object-attribute incidence data and as similarity-based functional dependencies in a similarity-based generalization of the relational model of data. Based on our observations, we derive a polynomial-time algorithm which transforms a given finite set of rules into an equivalent one which has the least size in terms of the number of rules.
