Basic Functions in Knowledge Space Theory Using Matrix
Representation
Description
Knowledge space theory by Doignon and Falmagne (1999)
is a set- and order-theoretical
framework, which proposes mathematical formalisms to operationalize
knowledge structures in a particular domain. The 'kstMatrix' package
provides basic functionalities to generate, handle, and manipulate
knowledge structures and knowledge spaces. Opposed to the 'kst'
package, 'kstMatrix' uses matrix representations for knowledge
structures. Furthermore, 'kstMatrix' contains several knowledge spaces
developed by the research group around Cornelia Dowling through
querying experts.
