state2imp: Transformation from Knowledge States to Implications

Description

state2imp transforms a set of knowledge states (ought to be a quasi ordinal knowledge space) to the corresponding set of implications (the surmise relation).

Usage

state2imp(P)

Arguments

P

a required matrix of ones and zeros giving the knowledge states to be used. Each row represents the $1$/$0$-pattern of a knowledge state.

Value

If the argument P is of required type, state2imp returns an object of class set (the surmise relation) representing the set of implications.

Examples

## an arbitrary matrix of knowledge states is defined
x <- matrix(0, nrow = 5, ncol = 3)
x[1, ] <- c(0, 0, 0)
x[2, ] <- c(0, 0, 1)
x[3, ] <- c(0, 1, 0)
x[4, ] <- c(0, 1, 1)
x[5, ] <- c(1, 1, 1)
