Article
The methods of conceptual scaling and generalized one-sided concept lattices represent different possibilities on how to deal with many-valued contexts. We briefly describe these methods and prove that they are equivalent. In particular, we show that the application of these two approaches to a given many-valued context yields the same closure syst...
