KFCA Demo

 

KFCA demo allows the analysis of a confusion matrix (also called contingency tables) using a generalization of Formal Concept Analysis to produce a sequence of concept lattices that allows an improved observation of the groupings and hierarchies of errors.


In Formal Concept Analysis parlance the emitted stimuli or classes are called objects whereas received stimuli or classes are attributes, and confusion matrices, incidences.


Users can upload their own confusion matrices as a MAT file generated by Matlab (plain text files with labels for objects and attributes are optional) or as a CSV (Comma Separated Values) file with labels included. Download examples of these files: MAT confusion matrix, text labels or CSV confusion matrix with labels.


The description of the generalization of Formal Concept Analysis can be found in:


Applications of the method on phonetic and articulatory confusion matrices can be found in:
