Abstract

Exploring old pharmacopoeias is a promising way to find active ingredients that can be useful to design new drugs. Nevertheless, studying these texts is a laborious task for biologists. Therefore, an interdisciplinary project was undertaken: texts have been annotated to extract relevant information and represent it within a graph database. Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) and Relational Concept Analysis (RCA) have then been used to explore this database, in order to answer questions regarding remedies and their ingredients. This paper presents the data and some results obtained with FCA and RCA. It highlights the suitability of these approaches to explore these data and answer the needs of biologists.

This research is supported by ANR 21-CE23-0023 SmartFCA and CNRS MITI’80 2021 PARADISE.

Notes

  1. 1.

    We use the term ’formal context’ for FCA, and ’object-attribute context’ for RCA.

  3. 3.

    In the rest of the paper, \(\top \) and \(\bot \) concepts are not considered in the analyses.
