AIMS AND SCOPE 

CLA is an international conference dedicated to formal concept 
analysis (FCA) and areas closely related to FCA such as data mining, 
information retrieval, knowledge management, data and knowledge 
engineering, logic, algebra and lattice theory. CLA provides a forum 
for researchers, practitioners, and students. The program of CLA 
consists of invited plenary talks, regular talks, and poster 
sessions. We solicit papers in all areas relevant to the theory and 
applications of FCA. 

TOPICS 

Topics of interest include but are not limited to: 

* Concept Lattices and related structures 
* Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining 
* Knowledge Engineering and Ontology Engineering 
* Association Rules, Itemsets and Data Dependencies 
* Attribute Implications 
* Algorithms for Concept Lattices and Complexity 
* Visualization 
* Data Preprocessing 
* Redundancy and Dimensionality Reduction 
* Information Retrieval 
* Classification and Clustering 
* Pattern Recognition 
* Applications of Concept Lattices 

SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION 

Papers of up to twelve pages may be submitted in the PDF or Postscript 
format. For each paper, an abstract must be submitted by June 20, 
2011. 
The submission is done via

Authors are requested to follow the formatting instructions for the 
Springer LNCS style,
