A generalized concept-cognitive learning: A machine learning viewpoint

Concept-cognitive learning (CCL) is a hot topic in recent years, and it has attracted much attention from the communities of formal concept analysis, granular computing and cognitive computing. However, the relationship among cognitive computing (CC), concept-cognitive computing (CCC) and CCL is not clearly described. To this end, we explain the relationship of CC, CCC and CCL. Then, we propose a generalized concept-cognitive learning (GCCL) from the point of view of machine learning. Finally, experiments on some data sets are conducted to evaluate concept formation and concept-cognitive processes of the proposed GCCL.
